Chemical Structure

2-methyl-5-(trifluoromethyl)furan CAS 17515-75-2 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 154.13 g/mol gives 2-methyl-5-(trifluoromethyl)furan distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies 2-methyl-5-(trifluoromethyl)furan (CAS 17515-75-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6H9F3O, MW 154.13 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, 2-methyl-5-(trifluoromethyl)furan is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 154.13 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.

CATO manufactures 2-methyl-5-(trifluoromethyl)furan 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.
