Chemical Structure

1,2-Dibromo-1,2-diphenylethane CAS 5789-30-0 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1,2-Dibromo-1,2-diphenylethane 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.

1,2-Dibromo-1,2-diphenylethane (CAS 5789-30-0), molecular formula C14H12Br2 and molecular weight 340.05 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 1,2-Dibromo-1,2-diphenylethane (C14H12Br2) contains bromine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 8.0, corresponding to approximately 8 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 340.05 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
