Chemical Structure

(E)-Methyl 3-(3-bromo-4-hydroxyphenyl)acrylate CAS 74568-53-9 chemical structure

Description

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.

(E)-Methyl 3-(3-bromo-4-hydroxyphenyl)acrylate (CAS 74568-53-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H9BrO3 and a molecular weight of 257.08 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C10H9BrO3, (E)-Methyl 3-(3-bromo-4-hydroxyphenyl)acrylate contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 257.08 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
