Chemical Structure

1-(3-Bromopropyl)-4-methylbenzene CAS 54540-53-3 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 1-(3-Bromopropyl)-4-methylbenzene.

1-(3-Bromopropyl)-4-methylbenzene (CAS 54540-53-3), molecular formula C10H13Br and molecular weight 213.11 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 1-(3-Bromopropyl)-4-methylbenzene (C10H13Br) 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.

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.

CATO manufactures 1-(3-Bromopropyl)-4-methylbenzene 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.
