Chemical Structure

1,4-Dibromo-2,5-bis(octyloxy)benzene CAS 56028-40-9 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures 1,4-Dibromo-2,5-bis(octyloxy)benzene 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.

CATO supplies 1,4-Dibromo-2,5-bis(octyloxy)benzene (CAS 56028-40-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C22H36Br2O2, MW 492.33 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 1,4-Dibromo-2,5-bis(octyloxy)benzene (C22H36Br2O2) contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 4.0, corresponding to approximately 4 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 492.33 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. 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.
