Chemical Structure

3-Bromo-2,4,6-trimethylbenzoic acid CAS 5333-13-1 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 3-Bromo-2,4,6-trimethylbenzoic acid is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 243.10 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).

3-Bromo-2,4,6-trimethylbenzoic acid (CAS 5333-13-1) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H11BrO2 and a molecular weight of 243.10 g/mol.
