Chemical Structure

Ethyl 2-Bromohexanoate CAS 615-96-3 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Ethyl 2-Bromohexanoate 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.

Ethyl 2-Bromohexanoate (CAS 615-96-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H15BrO2 and a molecular weight of 223.11 g/mol.

Structurally, Ethyl 2-Bromohexanoate (C8H15BrO2) 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 223.11 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.
