Chemical Structure

tert-Butyl (R)-2-bromo-4-methylpentanoate CAS 130464-88-9 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies tert-Butyl (R)-2-bromo-4-methylpentanoate (CAS 130464-88-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H19BrO2, MW 251.16 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of tert-Butyl (R)-2-bromo-4-methylpentanoate (C10H19BrO2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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 (R)-2-bromo-4-methylpentanoate 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.
