Chemical Structure

Methyl 3,5-dibromobenzofuran-2-carboxylate CAS 1355190-08-7 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Methyl 3,5-dibromobenzofuran-2-carboxylate 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.

Methyl 3,5-dibromobenzofuran-2-carboxylate (CAS 1355190-08-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H6Br2O3 and a molecular weight of 333.96 g/mol.

Structurally, Methyl 3,5-dibromobenzofuran-2-carboxylate (C10H6Br2O3) 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 7.0, corresponding to approximately 7 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 333.96 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.
