Chemical Structure

Ethyl 2-Bromo-2-chloroacetate CAS 22524-32-9 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Ethyl 2-Bromo-2-chloroacetate is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine/bromine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Ethyl 2-Bromo-2-chloroacetate (CAS 22524-32-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C4H6BrClO2, MW 201.45 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of Ethyl 2-Bromo-2-chloroacetate (C4H6BrClO2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine/bromine substitution. 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. 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), Ethyl 2-Bromo-2-chloroacetate 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.
