Chemical Structure

4-chloro-7-methyl-1-benzofuran-3-carboxylic acid CAS 1483815-00-4 chemical structure

Description

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

4-chloro-7-methyl-1-benzofuran-3-carboxylic acid (CAS 1483815-00-4), molecular formula C10H7ClO3 and molecular weight 210.61 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C10H7ClO3, 4-chloro-7-methyl-1-benzofuran-3-carboxylic acid contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 210.61 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
