Chemical Structure

5-Methyl-2-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)benzofuran CAS 183589-30-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 5-Methyl-2-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)benzofuran is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

5-Methyl-2-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)benzofuran (CAS 183589-30-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C16H11F3O and a molecular weight of 276.25 g/mol.

5-Methyl-2-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)benzofuran (C16H11F3O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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

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.
