Chemical Structure

Methyl 2,3-Dibromobutanoate CAS 5469-24-9 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Methyl 2,3-Dibromobutanoate 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.

Methyl 2,3-Dibromobutanoate (CAS 5469-24-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C5H8Br2O2 and a molecular weight of 259.92 g/mol.

Structurally, Methyl 2,3-Dibromobutanoate (C5H8Br2O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 1.0, corresponding to approximately 1 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 259.92 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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