Chemical Structure

tert-butyl 2-bromoimidazole-1-carboxylate CAS 1207457-15-5 chemical structure

Description

Based on its molecular formula C8H15BrN2O2, tert-butyl 2-bromoimidazole-1-carboxylate contains an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 251.12 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

tert-butyl 2-bromoimidazole-1-carboxylate (CAS 1207457-15-5), molecular formula C8H15BrN2O2 and molecular weight 251.12 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), tert-butyl 2-bromoimidazole-1-carboxylate 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.
