Chemical Structure

1-(Bromomethyl)-4-(phenylethynyl)benzene CAS 5140-95-4 chemical structure

Description

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.

1-(Bromomethyl)-4-(phenylethynyl)benzene (CAS 5140-95-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C15H11Br and a molecular weight of 271.15 g/mol.

1-(Bromomethyl)-4-(phenylethynyl)benzene (C15H11Br) contains bromine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-(Bromomethyl)-4-(phenylethynyl)benzene 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.
