Chemical Structure

2-Bromo-4-formylphenyl 4-chlorobenzoate CAS 944681-76-9 chemical structure

Description

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.

2-Bromo-4-formylphenyl 4-chlorobenzoate (CAS 944681-76-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C14H8BrClO3 and a molecular weight of 339.57 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 2-Bromo-4-formylphenyl 4-chlorobenzoate (C14H8BrClO3) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine/bromine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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).

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Bromo-4-formylphenyl 4-chlorobenzoate 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.
