Chemical Structure

5-Bromo-2,4-dimethylphenol CAS 74571-80-5 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 5-Bromo-2,4-dimethylphenol.

5-Bromo-2,4-dimethylphenol (CAS 74571-80-5), molecular formula C8H9BrO and molecular weight 201.06 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 5-Bromo-2,4-dimethylphenol (C8H9BrO) 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 the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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 5-Bromo-2,4-dimethylphenol 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.
