Chemical Structure

2-(5-Bromo-3-chloro-2-fluorophenyl)acetic acid CAS 1537364-77-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-(5-Bromo-3-chloro-2-fluorophenyl)acetic acid is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2-(5-Bromo-3-chloro-2-fluorophenyl)acetic acid (CAS 1537364-77-4), molecular formula C8H5BrClFO2 and molecular weight 267.48 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/chlorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 2-(5-Bromo-3-chloro-2-fluorophenyl)acetic acid is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 267.48 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
