Chemical Structure

2-Bromo-1-(2,3,5,6-tetramethylphenyl)ethan-1-one CAS 67159-34-6 chemical structure

Description

2-Bromo-1-(2,3,5,6-tetramethylphenyl)ethan-1-one (CAS 67159-34-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H15BrO and a molecular weight of 255.15 g/mol.

Structurally, 2-Bromo-1-(2,3,5,6-tetramethylphenyl)ethan-1-one (C12H15BrO) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 5.0, corresponding to approximately 5 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 255.15 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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-(2,3,5,6-tetramethylphenyl)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.
