Chemical Structure

2-(2-Bromophenyl)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)ethanone CAS 655244-07-8 chemical structure

Description

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.

2-(2-Bromophenyl)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)ethanone (CAS 655244-07-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C15H13BrO2 and a molecular weight of 305.17 g/mol.

2-(2-Bromophenyl)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)ethanone (C15H13BrO2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-(2-Bromophenyl)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)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.
