Chemical Structure

2-(2-Bromo-5-methylphenyl)acetic acid CAS 203314-29-8 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2-(2-Bromo-5-methylphenyl)acetic acid.

CATO supplies 2-(2-Bromo-5-methylphenyl)acetic acid (CAS 203314-29-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H9BrO2, MW 229.07 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 2-(2-Bromo-5-methylphenyl)acetic acid (C9H9BrO2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.

CATO manufactures 2-(2-Bromo-5-methylphenyl)acetic acid under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
