The occurrence of 1-(5,6-Dihydro-4H-cyclopenta[b]furan-2-yl)ethanone is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
1-(5,6-Dihydro-4H-cyclopenta[b]furan-2-yl)ethanone (CAS 120085-88-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H10O2 and a molecular weight of 150.17 g/mol.
Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 1-(5,6-Dihydro-4H-cyclopenta[b]furan-2-yl)ethanone is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 150.17 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).
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.
