Ethyl 3-(4-Bromophenyl)-2-cyanoacrylate CAS 18861-58-0 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Ethyl 3-(4-Bromophenyl)-2-cyanoacrylate (CAS 18861-58-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H10BrNO2, MW 280.12 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Ethyl 3-(4-Bromophenyl)-2-cyanoacrylate (C12H10BrNO2) 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 high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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

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.
