Chemical Structure

4-(1-Bromopentyl)-1,2-dichlorobenzene CAS 68120-61-6 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.

4-(1-Bromopentyl)-1,2-dichlorobenzene (CAS 68120-61-6), molecular formula C11H13BrCl2 and molecular weight 296.03 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to chlorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 4-(1-Bromopentyl)-1,2-dichlorobenzene is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 296.03 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).

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.
