Chemical Structure

4-Bromo-2,5-dimethylbenzaldehyde CAS 88111-74-4 chemical structure

Description

4-Bromo-2,5-dimethylbenzaldehyde (CAS 88111-74-4), molecular formula C9H9BrO and molecular weight 213.07 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

4-Bromo-2,5-dimethylbenzaldehyde (C9H9BrO) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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), 4-Bromo-2,5-dimethylbenzaldehyde 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.
