Chemical Structure

(Z)-3-(furan-2-yl)-2-mercaptoacrylic acid CAS 19334-19-1 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, (Z)-3-(furan-2-yl)-2-mercaptoacrylic acid (C7H6O3S) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 5.0, corresponding to approximately 5 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 170.19 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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).

CATO supplies (Z)-3-(furan-2-yl)-2-mercaptoacrylic acid (CAS 19334-19-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H6O3S, MW 170.19 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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.

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.
