Chemical Structure

Dimethyl 3-bromo-2-oxopentanedioate CAS 148728-48-7 chemical structure

Description

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

CATO supplies Dimethyl 3-bromo-2-oxopentanedioate (CAS 148728-48-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H9BrO5, MW 253.05 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of Dimethyl 3-bromo-2-oxopentanedioate (C7H9BrO5) 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 the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.
