Bromomethyl isobutyrate CAS 74416-82-3 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Bromomethyl isobutyrate (CAS 74416-82-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C5H9BrO2, MW 181.03 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Bromomethyl isobutyrate (C5H9BrO2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Bromomethyl isobutyrate 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.
