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.
4-Bromo-5-methyl-1,2-dihydro-3H-pyrazol-3-one (CAS 89363-91-7), molecular formula C4H5BrN2O and molecular weight 177.00 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, 4-Bromo-5-methyl-1,2-dihydro-3H-pyrazol-3-one is typically white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 177.00 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).
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.
