Chemical Structure

furan-2,5-dione CAS 184288-31-1 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures furan-2,5-dione 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.

furan-2,5-dione (CAS 184288-31-1), molecular formula C4H2O3 and molecular weight 98.06 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, furan-2,5-dione is typically off-white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 98.06 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).

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