Chemical Structure

5-(4-(Hydroxymethyl)phenyl)furan-2-carboxylic acid CAS 1365988-43-7 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 5-(4-(Hydroxymethyl)phenyl)furan-2-carboxylic acid.

CATO supplies 5-(4-(Hydroxymethyl)phenyl)furan-2-carboxylic acid (CAS 1365988-43-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H10O4, MW 218.21 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 5-(4-(Hydroxymethyl)phenyl)furan-2-carboxylic acid (C12H10O4) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 8.0, corresponding to approximately 8 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 218.21 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).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 5-(4-(Hydroxymethyl)phenyl)furan-2-carboxylic acid 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.
