Chemical Structure

Propyl 2-bromopropanoate CAS 10259-96-8 chemical structure

Description

Propyl 2-bromopropanoate (CAS 10259-96-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H11BrO2 and a molecular weight of 195.05 g/mol.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, Propyl 2-bromopropanoate is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 195.05 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.

CATO manufactures Propyl 2-bromopropanoate under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
