The occurrence of 1,2,3,4,5-Pentabromo-6-(3,5-dibromophenoxy)benzene is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
1,2,3,4,5-Pentabromo-6-(3,5-dibromophenoxy)benzene (CAS 407578-53-4), molecular formula C12H3Br7O and molecular weight 722.48 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 1,2,3,4,5-Pentabromo-6-(3,5-dibromophenoxy)benzene is typically pale yellow to yellow amorphous powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 722.48 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).
This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.
The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
