Chemical Structure

5-Chloro-2-(2-chlorophenyl)benzofuran CAS 227802-76-8 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 5-Chloro-2-(2-chlorophenyl)benzofuran.

CATO supplies 5-Chloro-2-(2-chlorophenyl)benzofuran (CAS 227802-76-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C14H8Cl2O, MW 263.12 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C14H8Cl2O, 5-Chloro-2-(2-chlorophenyl)benzofuran contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 263.12 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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 5-Chloro-2-(2-chlorophenyl)benzofuran 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.
