Chemical Structure

2-Bromopentadecanoic acid CAS 82144-78-3 chemical structure

Description

2-Bromopentadecanoic acid (CAS 82144-78-3), molecular formula C15H29BrO2 and molecular weight 321.29 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 2-Bromopentadecanoic acid (C15H29BrO2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. 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. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Bromopentadecanoic acid 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.
