(S)-(4-Bromophenyl)(phenyl)methanol (CAS 73773-07-6), molecular formula C13H11BrO and molecular weight 263.13 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Based on its molecular formula C13H11BrO, (S)-(4-Bromophenyl)(phenyl)methanol 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 263.13 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
As a certified reference material (CRM), (S)-(4-Bromophenyl)(phenyl)methanol 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.
