Chemical Structure

4,5-Dibromoisothiazole-3-carboxylic acid CAS 4576-87-8 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4,5-Dibromoisothiazole-3-carboxylic acid is closely related to an amide group, a sulfone 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.

4,5-Dibromoisothiazole-3-carboxylic acid (CAS 4576-87-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C4HBr2NO2S and a molecular weight of 286.93 g/mol.

Owing to an amide group, a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, 4,5-Dibromoisothiazole-3-carboxylic acid is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 286.93 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.
