Chemical Structure

Methyl 5-(4-fluorobenzoyl)furan-2-carboxylate CAS 170632-16-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Methyl 5-(4-fluorobenzoyl)furan-2-carboxylate is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Methyl 5-(4-fluorobenzoyl)furan-2-carboxylate (CAS 170632-16-3), molecular formula C13H9FO4 and molecular weight 248.21 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, Methyl 5-(4-fluorobenzoyl)furan-2-carboxylate (C13H9FO4) 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 9.0, corresponding to approximately 9 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 248.21 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).

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