Chemical Structure

Methyl 5-(bromomethyl)-2-(trifluoromethyl)isonicotinate CAS 1260671-91-7 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

Methyl 5-(bromomethyl)-2-(trifluoromethyl)isonicotinate (CAS 1260671-91-7), molecular formula C9H7BrF3NO2 and molecular weight 298.06 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/bromine substitution, Methyl 5-(bromomethyl)-2-(trifluoromethyl)isonicotinate is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 298.06 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.
