The occurrence of 3,7-Dibromo-1,5-diphenylnaphthalene is closely related to bromine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies 3,7-Dibromo-1,5-diphenylnaphthalene (CAS 872610-33-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C22H14Br2, MW 438.15 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Structurally, 3,7-Dibromo-1,5-diphenylnaphthalene (C22H14Br2) contains bromine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 15.0, corresponding to approximately 15 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 438.15 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. 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.
The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
