Chemical Structure

2-Bromo-1-(2-hydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl)ethan-1-one CAS 60965-24-4 chemical structure

Description

2-Bromo-1-(2-hydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl)ethan-1-one (CAS 60965-24-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H9BrO3 and a molecular weight of 245.07 g/mol.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 2-Bromo-1-(2-hydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl)ethan-1-one is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 245.07 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Bromo-1-(2-hydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl)ethan-1-one 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.
