Chemical Structure

2-Bromo-6-fluoro-3-(trifluoromethyl)benzoic acid CAS 2059937-52-7 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-Bromo-6-fluoro-3-(trifluoromethyl)benzoic acid is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2-Bromo-6-fluoro-3-(trifluoromethyl)benzoic acid (CAS 2059937-52-7), molecular formula C8H3BrF4O2 and molecular weight 287.01 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 2-Bromo-6-fluoro-3-(trifluoromethyl)benzoic acid (C8H3BrF4O2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/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-Bromo-6-fluoro-3-(trifluoromethyl)benzoic 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.
