Chemical Structure

Ethyl 3-(2-bromo-4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)propanoate CAS 1261645-95-7 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, Ethyl 3-(2-bromo-4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)propanoate is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 325.12 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.

CATO supplies Ethyl 3-(2-bromo-4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)propanoate (CAS 1261645-95-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H12BrF3O2, MW 325.12 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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.
