Chemical Structure

Methyl 2-bromo-2-(4-fluorophenyl)propanoate CAS 1399656-48-4 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Methyl 2-bromo-2-(4-fluorophenyl)propanoate 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 2-bromo-2-(4-fluorophenyl)propanoate (CAS 1399656-48-4), molecular formula C10H10BrFO2 and molecular weight 261.09 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, Methyl 2-bromo-2-(4-fluorophenyl)propanoate is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 261.09 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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