Chemical Structure

2,3-Dibromo-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)propanoic acid CAS 77820-32-7 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 337.99 g/mol gives 2,3-Dibromo-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)propanoic acid distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2,3-Dibromo-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)propanoic acid (CAS 77820-32-7), molecular formula C10H10Br2O3 and molecular weight 337.99 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

2,3-Dibromo-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)propanoic acid (C10H10Br2O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, 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.

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.
