Chemical Structure

(2Z)-6-Hydroxy-2-(3-methoxybenzylidene)-1-benzofuran-3(2H)-one CAS 1234351-88-2 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), (2Z)-6-Hydroxy-2-(3-methoxybenzylidene)-1-benzofuran-3(2H)-one meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.

CATO supplies (2Z)-6-Hydroxy-2-(3-methoxybenzylidene)-1-benzofuran-3(2H)-one (CAS 1234351-88-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C16H12O4, MW 268.26 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, (2Z)-6-Hydroxy-2-(3-methoxybenzylidene)-1-benzofuran-3(2H)-one is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 268.26 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
