4-((2,5-Dioxotetrahydrofuran-3-yl)thio)butanoic acid CAS 185422-75-7 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-((2,5-Dioxotetrahydrofuran-3-yl)thio)butanoic acid is closely related to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

4-((2,5-Dioxotetrahydrofuran-3-yl)thio)butanoic acid (CAS 185422-75-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H10O5S and a molecular weight of 218.23 g/mol.

Owing to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 4-((2,5-Dioxotetrahydrofuran-3-yl)thio)butanoic acid is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 218.23 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
