Chemical Structure

Methyl 4-(4-bromophenyl)-2,4-dioxobutanoate CAS 60395-85-9 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Methyl 4-(4-bromophenyl)-2,4-dioxobutanoate is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Methyl 4-(4-bromophenyl)-2,4-dioxobutanoate (CAS 60395-85-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H9BrO4 and a molecular weight of 285.09 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Methyl 4-(4-bromophenyl)-2,4-dioxobutanoate (C11H9BrO4) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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