Chemical Structure
Description
Methyl 2-(Bromomethyl)acrylate (CAS 4224-69-5), molecular formula C5H7BrO2 and molecular weight 179.01 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Methyl 2-(Bromomethyl)acrylate (C5H7BrO2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
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.
CATO manufactures Methyl 2-(Bromomethyl)acrylate under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
