Chemical Structure

1-Bromo-2,4-diisopropylbenzene CAS 40734-55-2 chemical structure

Description

1-Bromo-2,4-diisopropylbenzene (CAS 40734-55-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H17Br and a molecular weight of 241.17 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 1-Bromo-2,4-diisopropylbenzene (C12H17Br) is characterized by bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-Bromo-2,4-diisopropylbenzene meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
