CATO supplies 2-([1,1'-Biphenyl]-4-yl)furan (CAS 21236-00-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C16H12O, MW 220.27 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
2-([1,1'-Biphenyl]-4-yl)furan (C16H12O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
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.
CATO manufactures 2-([1,1'-Biphenyl]-4-yl)furan 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.
