Description
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
2,3-Dibromo-3-methylbutanoic acid (CAS 80573-34-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C5H8Br2O2 and a molecular weight of 259.92 g/mol.
Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, 2,3-Dibromo-3-methylbutanoic acid is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 259.92 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
CATO manufactures 2,3-Dibromo-3-methylbutanoic acid under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
