Chemical Structure

Ethyl 2-bromo-3-oxo-3-[4-(trifluoromethoxy)phenyl]propanoate CAS 887267-61-0 chemical structure

Description

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.

CATO supplies Ethyl 2-bromo-3-oxo-3-[4-(trifluoromethoxy)phenyl]propanoate (CAS 887267-61-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H10BrF3O4, MW 355.10 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of Ethyl 2-bromo-3-oxo-3-[4-(trifluoromethoxy)phenyl]propanoate (C12H10BrF3O4) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.
