Chemical Structure

Isobutyl Bromoacetate CAS 59956-48-8 chemical structure

Description

Isobutyl Bromoacetate (CAS 59956-48-8), molecular formula C6H11BrO2 and molecular weight 195.05 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, Isobutyl Bromoacetate (C6H11BrO2) 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 195.05 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.

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), Isobutyl Bromoacetate 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.
