Chemical Structure

Methyl 5-bromo-2-(dibromomethyl)benzoate CAS 1265286-99-4 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Methyl 5-bromo-2-(dibromomethyl)benzoate (CAS 1265286-99-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H7Br3O2, MW 386.86 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, Methyl 5-bromo-2-(dibromomethyl)benzoate (C9H7Br3O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 5.0, corresponding to approximately 5 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 386.86 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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

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.
