Chemical Structure

tert-Butyl 5-bromo-2-methylnicotinate CAS 1346543-51-8 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 272.14 g/mol gives tert-Butyl 5-bromo-2-methylnicotinate distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies tert-Butyl 5-bromo-2-methylnicotinate (CAS 1346543-51-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C11H14BrNO2, MW 272.14 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, tert-Butyl 5-bromo-2-methylnicotinate is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 272.14 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.

CATO manufactures tert-Butyl 5-bromo-2-methylnicotinate under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
