.alpha.-Bromo-.gamma.-butyrolactone .alpha.-Bromobutyric acid, .gamma.-lactone .alpha.-Bromobutyrolactone 2(3H)-Furanone, 3-bromodihydro- 2-Bromo-.gamma.-butyrolactone 2-Bromo-4-butanolide 2-Bromobutyrolactone 3-Bromo-2-furanone 5061-21-2 NSC-56959 NSC56959 (C4H5BrO2) 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.
