The occurrence of 4-Bromo-2,5-bis((2-ethylhexyl)oxy)benzaldehyde 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.
4-Bromo-2,5-bis((2-ethylhexyl)oxy)benzaldehyde (CAS 945624-63-5), molecular formula C23H37BrO3 and molecular weight 441.44 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of 4-Bromo-2,5-bis((2-ethylhexyl)oxy)benzaldehyde (C23H37BrO3) is characterized by a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. 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).
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.
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.
