Chemical Structure

3-(5-Bromo-2-chlorophenoxy)-2,2-dimethylpropanoic acid CAS 1541543-41-2 chemical structure

Description

3-(5-Bromo-2-chlorophenoxy)-2,2-dimethylpropanoic acid (CAS 1541543-41-2), molecular formula C11H12BrClO3 and molecular weight 307.57 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 3-(5-Bromo-2-chlorophenoxy)-2,2-dimethylpropanoic acid is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 307.57 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.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 3-(5-Bromo-2-chlorophenoxy)-2,2-dimethylpropanoic acid 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.
