Chemical Structure

4-fluorofuran-3-carboxylic acid CAS 1558405-94-9 chemical structure

Description

4-fluorofuran-3-carboxylic acid (CAS 1558405-94-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C5H3FO3 and a molecular weight of 130.07 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C5H3FO3, 4-fluorofuran-3-carboxylic acid contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 130.07 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.

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.
