Chemical Structure
Description
The occurrence of 3-Bromo-4-methylbenzyl Alcohol is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies 3-Bromo-4-methylbenzyl Alcohol (CAS 68120-35-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H9BrO, MW 201.06 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Based on its molecular formula C8H9BrO, 3-Bromo-4-methylbenzyl Alcohol 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 201.06 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.
CATO manufactures 3-Bromo-4-methylbenzyl Alcohol under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
