3-Bromo-4-(methylsulfonyl)benzoic acid CAS 39058-84-9 chemical structure

Description

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.

3-Bromo-4-(methylsulfonyl)benzoic acid (CAS 39058-84-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H7BrO4S and a molecular weight of 279.11 g/mol.

Structurally, 3-Bromo-4-(methylsulfonyl)benzoic acid (C8H7BrO4S) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 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 279.11 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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