Chemical Structure

Methyl 2-bromo-3-cyano-4-methylbenzoate CAS 1805487-82-4 chemical structure

Description

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.

CATO supplies Methyl 2-bromo-3-cyano-4-methylbenzoate (CAS 1805487-82-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H8BrNO2, MW 254.08 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, Methyl 2-bromo-3-cyano-4-methylbenzoate (C10H8BrNO2) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 7.0, corresponding to approximately 7 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 254.08 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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).

As a certified reference material (CRM), Methyl 2-bromo-3-cyano-4-methylbenzoate 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.
