Chemical Structure

Methyl 2-(bromomethyl)-6-(trifluoromethyl)nicotinate CAS 280567-87-5 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

Methyl 2-(bromomethyl)-6-(trifluoromethyl)nicotinate (CAS 280567-87-5), molecular formula C9H7BrF3NO2 and molecular weight 298.06 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/bromine substitution, Methyl 2-(bromomethyl)-6-(trifluoromethyl)nicotinate is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 298.06 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Methyl 2-(bromomethyl)-6-(trifluoromethyl)nicotinate 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.
