Chemical Structure

Ethyl 3-(bromomethyl)-4-chlorobenzoate CAS 335013-00-8 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Ethyl 3-(bromomethyl)-4-chlorobenzoate.

CATO supplies Ethyl 3-(bromomethyl)-4-chlorobenzoate (CAS 335013-00-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H10BrClO2, MW 277.54 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, Ethyl 3-(bromomethyl)-4-chlorobenzoate (C10H10BrClO2) 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 277.54 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.

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.
