CATO supplies 55715-03-2 4-Bromomethyl-3-nitrobenzoic acid Benzoic acid, 4-(bromomethyl)-3-nitro- BNBA (CAS 55715-03-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H12BrNO4, MW 266.09 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
55715-03-2 4-Bromomethyl-3-nitrobenzoic acid Benzoic acid, 4-(bromomethyl)-3-nitro- BNBA (C8H12BrNO4) contains an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. It is notably hygroscopic, 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.
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
