CATO supplies 5-Isopropyl-2-methylbenzofuran (CAS 225933-81-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H14O, MW 174.24 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 5-Isopropyl-2-methylbenzofuran is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 174.24 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).
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
CATO manufactures 5-Isopropyl-2-methylbenzofuran 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.
