Chemical Structure

4,4’-Di(bromomethyl)diphenyl Ether CAS 4542-75-0 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4,4’-Di(bromomethyl)diphenyl Ether is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

4,4’-Di(bromomethyl)diphenyl Ether (CAS 4542-75-0), molecular formula C14H12Br2O and molecular weight 356.05 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 4,4’-Di(bromomethyl)diphenyl Ether (C14H12Br2O) is characterized by a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic 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 aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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

CATO manufactures 4,4’-Di(bromomethyl)diphenyl Ether under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
