Methyl 2-(3-bromo-4-nitrophenyl)acetate CAS 185200-33-3 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 274.07 g/mol gives Methyl 2-(3-bromo-4-nitrophenyl)acetate distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Methyl 2-(3-bromo-4-nitrophenyl)acetate (CAS 185200-33-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H8BrNO4 and a molecular weight of 274.07 g/mol.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, Methyl 2-(3-bromo-4-nitrophenyl)acetate is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 274.07 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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-(3-bromo-4-nitrophenyl)acetate 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.
