Chemical Structure

4-Bromo-2-cyclopentylphenol CAS 55910-44-6 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-Bromo-2-cyclopentylphenol 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.

CATO supplies 4-Bromo-2-cyclopentylphenol (CAS 55910-44-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C11H13BrO, MW 241.12 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 4-Bromo-2-cyclopentylphenol is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 241.12 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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), 4-Bromo-2-cyclopentylphenol 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.
