As a certified reference material (CRM), 7-(3-Bromo-4-methylphenyl)-7-oxoheptanoic 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.
7-(3-Bromo-4-methylphenyl)-7-oxoheptanoic acid (CAS 898767-22-1), molecular formula C14H17BrO3 and molecular weight 313.19 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
7-(3-Bromo-4-methylphenyl)-7-oxoheptanoic acid (C14H17BrO3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
