Chemical Structure

(S)-Methyl 2-bromopropanoate CAS 62076-23-7 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including (S)-Methyl 2-bromopropanoate.

(S)-Methyl 2-bromopropanoate (CAS 62076-23-7), molecular formula C4H7BrO2 and molecular weight 167.00 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, (S)-Methyl 2-bromopropanoate (C4H7BrO2) 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 167.00 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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
