Chemical Structure

3-(3-Bromophenyl)-1-(3,5-dimethylphenyl)propan-1-one CAS 898760-33-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 3-(3-Bromophenyl)-1-(3,5-dimethylphenyl)propan-1-one is closely related to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 3-(3-Bromophenyl)-1-(3,5-dimethylphenyl)propan-1-one (CAS 898760-33-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C17H17BrO, MW 317.22 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, 3-(3-Bromophenyl)-1-(3,5-dimethylphenyl)propan-1-one is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 317.22 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).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

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.
