Chemical Structure

1-(Furan-2-yl)but-3-ene-1,2-diol CAS 19261-13-3 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 154.16 g/mol gives 1-(Furan-2-yl)but-3-ene-1,2-diol distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies 1-(Furan-2-yl)but-3-ene-1,2-diol (CAS 19261-13-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H10O3, MW 154.16 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 1-(Furan-2-yl)but-3-ene-1,2-diol is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 154.16 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).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-(Furan-2-yl)but-3-ene-1,2-diol meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
