2-Bromo-1-(4-octylphenyl)ethanone CAS 64068-76-4 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2-Bromo-1-(4-octylphenyl)ethanone.

CATO supplies 2-Bromo-1-(4-octylphenyl)ethanone (CAS 64068-76-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C16H23BrO, MW 311.26 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C16H23BrO, 2-Bromo-1-(4-octylphenyl)ethanone contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 311.26 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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), 2-Bromo-1-(4-octylphenyl)ethanone 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.
