CATO supplies 2-Bromo-1-(4-ethylphenyl)-2-methyl-1-propanone (CAS 698394-60-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H15BrO, MW 255.15 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
The molecular framework of 2-Bromo-1-(4-ethylphenyl)-2-methyl-1-propanone (C12H15BrO) is characterized by 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 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-(4-ethylphenyl)-2-methyl-1-propanone 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.
