Chemical Structure

2-Bromo-N-ethoxyacetamide CAS 402831-81-6 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-Bromo-N-ethoxyacetamide is closely related to an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 2-Bromo-N-ethoxyacetamide (CAS 402831-81-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C4H8BrNO2, MW 182.02 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, 2-Bromo-N-ethoxyacetamide is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 182.02 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.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Bromo-N-ethoxyacetamide 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.
