Chemical Structure

(E)-Methyl 3-bromoacrylate CAS 6213-87-2 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 164.99 g/mol gives (E)-Methyl 3-bromoacrylate distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

(E)-Methyl 3-bromoacrylate (CAS 6213-87-2), molecular formula C4H5BrO2 and molecular weight 164.99 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, (E)-Methyl 3-bromoacrylate (C4H5BrO2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 2.0, corresponding to approximately 2 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 164.99 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), (E)-Methyl 3-bromoacrylate 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.
