The molecular framework of 3,6-Dibromo-1-methylphenanthrene (C16H12Br2) is characterized by 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).
3,6-Dibromo-1-methylphenanthrene (CAS 52650-97-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C16H12Br2 and a molecular weight of 364.07 g/mol.
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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 3,6-Dibromo-1-methylphenanthrene 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.
