Chemical Structure

(S)-2-bromosuccinic acid CAS 584-98-5 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies (S)-2-bromosuccinic acid (CAS 584-98-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C4H5BrO4, MW 196.98 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C4H5BrO4, (S)-2-bromosuccinic acid contains a carbohydrate-derived structure, bromine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 196.98 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), (S)-2-bromosuccinic acid 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.
