Chemical Structure

Methyl 3-bromo-2-butoxy-5-methylbenzoate CAS 2432849-00-6 chemical structure

Description

Methyl 3-bromo-2-butoxy-5-methylbenzoate (C13H17BrO3) 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, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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).

Methyl 3-bromo-2-butoxy-5-methylbenzoate (CAS 2432849-00-6), molecular formula C13H17BrO3 and molecular weight 301.18 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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), Methyl 3-bromo-2-butoxy-5-methylbenzoate 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.
