Chemical Structure

Methyl 4-bromo-3-(chlorosulfonyl)benzoate CAS 168969-13-9 chemical structure

Description

Methyl 4-bromo-3-(chlorosulfonyl)benzoate (CAS 168969-13-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H6BrClO4S and a molecular weight of 313.55 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C8H6BrClO4S, Methyl 4-bromo-3-(chlorosulfonyl)benzoate contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 313.55 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.

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.
