2-Formyl-4H-furo[3,2-b]pyrrole-5-carboxylic acid CAS 164667-45-2 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.

2-Formyl-4H-furo[3,2-b]pyrrole-5-carboxylic acid (CAS 164667-45-2), molecular formula C8H5NO4 and molecular weight 179.13 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 2-Formyl-4H-furo[3,2-b]pyrrole-5-carboxylic acid is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 179.13 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).

CATO manufactures 2-Formyl-4H-furo[3,2-b]pyrrole-5-carboxylic acid under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
