Chemical Structure

1,4-Bis(4-bromobutoxy)benzene CAS 66619-91-8 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.

CATO supplies 1,4-Bis(4-bromobutoxy)benzene (CAS 66619-91-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C14H20Br2O2, MW 380.12 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 1,4-Bis(4-bromobutoxy)benzene (C14H20Br2O2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
