Chemical Structure

Ethyl 2-(3-bromo-2-cyano-4-methylphenyl)acetate CAS 1807209-89-7 chemical structure

Description

Ethyl 2-(3-bromo-2-cyano-4-methylphenyl)acetate (C12H12BrNO2) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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).

Ethyl 2-(3-bromo-2-cyano-4-methylphenyl)acetate (CAS 1807209-89-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H12BrNO2 and a molecular weight of 282.13 g/mol.

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.
