Chemical Structure

Methyl 3-bromo-2,6-dichlorobenzoate CAS 232277-30-4 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, Methyl 3-bromo-2,6-dichlorobenzoate (C8H5BrCl2O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 5.0, corresponding to approximately 5 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 283.93 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

CATO supplies Methyl 3-bromo-2,6-dichlorobenzoate (CAS 232277-30-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H5BrCl2O2, MW 283.93 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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.
