Chemical Structure

Ethyl 4-(trifluoromethyl)benzofuran-2-carboxylate CAS 1286744-03-3 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Ethyl 4-(trifluoromethyl)benzofuran-2-carboxylate.

CATO supplies Ethyl 4-(trifluoromethyl)benzofuran-2-carboxylate (CAS 1286744-03-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H9F3O3, MW 258.19 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, Ethyl 4-(trifluoromethyl)benzofuran-2-carboxylate (C12H9F3O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 7.0, corresponding to approximately 7 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 258.19 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Ethyl 4-(trifluoromethyl)benzofuran-2-carboxylate 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.
