Chemical Structure

1-(5-Ethylbenzofuran-2-yl)ethan-1-one CAS 106989-39-3 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 1-(5-Ethylbenzofuran-2-yl)ethan-1-one (C12H12O2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 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. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

1-(5-Ethylbenzofuran-2-yl)ethan-1-one (CAS 106989-39-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H12O2 and a molecular weight of 188.22 g/mol.
