Chemical Structure
Description
methyl (2R)-2-bromobutanoate (C5H9BrO2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
methyl (2R)-2-bromobutanoate (CAS 114438-75-4), molecular formula C5H9BrO2 and molecular weight 181.03 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
