Chemical Structure

4-Bromo-3-methylbenzoic Acid CAS 7697-28-1 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 4-Bromo-3-methylbenzoic Acid.

CATO supplies 4-Bromo-3-methylbenzoic Acid (CAS 7697-28-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H7BrO2, MW 215.04 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 4-Bromo-3-methylbenzoic Acid (C8H7BrO2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, 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 4-Bromo-3-methylbenzoic Acid 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.
