Chemical Structure

Dimethyl 4-bromophthalate CAS 87639-57-4 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.

CATO supplies Dimethyl 4-bromophthalate (CAS 87639-57-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H9BrO4, MW 273.08 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C10H9BrO4, Dimethyl 4-bromophthalate 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 273.08 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
