Chemical Structure

tert-Butyl 4-bromo-3-methoxybenzoate CAS 247186-51-2 chemical structure

Description

Based on its molecular formula C12H15BrO3, tert-Butyl 4-bromo-3-methoxybenzoate contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 287.15 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

CATO supplies tert-Butyl 4-bromo-3-methoxybenzoate (CAS 247186-51-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H15BrO3, MW 287.15 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.
