Chemical Structure

Methyl 2,5-dibromo-4-(difluoromethoxy)phenylacetate CAS 1803788-33-1 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Methyl 2,5-dibromo-4-(difluoromethoxy)phenylacetate (CAS 1803788-33-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H8Br2F2O3, MW 373.97 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, Methyl 2,5-dibromo-4-(difluoromethoxy)phenylacetate is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 373.97 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), Methyl 2,5-dibromo-4-(difluoromethoxy)phenylacetate 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.
