CATO supplies MEthyl 5-(4-bromophenyl)-1-(4-ethylphenyl)-2-methyl-1h-pyrrole-3-carboxylate (CAS 881040-08-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C21H20BrNO2, MW 398.29 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Based on its molecular formula C21H20BrNO2, MEthyl 5-(4-bromophenyl)-1-(4-ethylphenyl)-2-methyl-1h-pyrrole-3-carboxylate contains a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 398.29 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.
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.
