Chemical Structure

4,4'-Dibromo-3,3'-dimethyl-1,1'-biphenyl CAS 61794-96-5 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 340.05 g/mol gives 4,4'-Dibromo-3,3'-dimethyl-1,1'-biphenyl distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

4,4'-Dibromo-3,3'-dimethyl-1,1'-biphenyl (CAS 61794-96-5), molecular formula C14H12Br2 and molecular weight 340.05 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

4,4'-Dibromo-3,3'-dimethyl-1,1'-biphenyl (C14H12Br2) contains bromine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
