Chemical Structure
Description
Based on its molecular formula C9H6BrNO4, 4-Bromo-2-nitrocinnamic acid contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 272.05 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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).
4-Bromo-2-nitrocinnamic acid (CAS 20357-30-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H6BrNO4 and a molecular weight of 272.05 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.
