4,4,5,5-Tetramethyl-2-(5-(o-tolyl)furan-2-yl)-1,3,2-dioxaborolane (CAS 2096337-37-8), molecular formula C17H21BO3 and molecular weight 284.16 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Based on its molecular formula C17H21BO3, 4,4,5,5-Tetramethyl-2-(5-(o-tolyl)furan-2-yl)-1,3,2-dioxaborolane contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 284.16 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
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.
