Naphtho[2,1-b]furan CAS 232-95-1

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Naphtho[2,1-b]furan.

Naphtho[2,1-b]furan (CAS 232-95-1) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H8O and a molecular weight of 168.19 g/mol.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, Naphtho[2,1-b]furan is typically pale yellow to yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 168.19 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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 Naphtho[2,1-b]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.
