Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 291.10 g/mol gives 2-Bromo-3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoic acid distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
2-Bromo-3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoic acid (CAS 23346-82-9), molecular formula C10H11BrO5 and molecular weight 291.10 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
2-Bromo-3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoic acid (C10H11BrO5) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Bromo-3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoic acid 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.
