(2-Bromophenyl)(4-bromophenyl)methanone (CAS 78281-59-1), molecular formula C13H8Br2O and molecular weight 340.01 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of (2-Bromophenyl)(4-bromophenyl)methanone (C13H8Br2O) 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 aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
