Chemical Structure

3-Bromo-5-(trifluoromethoxy)benzoic acid CAS 453565-90-7 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 3-Bromo-5-(trifluoromethoxy)benzoic acid.

3-Bromo-5-(trifluoromethoxy)benzoic acid (CAS 453565-90-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H4BrF3O3 and a molecular weight of 285.01 g/mol.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 3-Bromo-5-(trifluoromethoxy)benzoic acid is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 285.01 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 3-Bromo-5-(trifluoromethoxy)benzoic acid 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.
