Chemical Structure

2,3-Dihydro-1-benzofuran-6-ol CAS 23681-89-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2,3-Dihydro-1-benzofuran-6-ol is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2,3-Dihydro-1-benzofuran-6-ol (CAS 23681-89-2), molecular formula C8H8O2 and molecular weight 136.15 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 2,3-Dihydro-1-benzofuran-6-ol (C8H8O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 5.0, corresponding to approximately 5 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 136.15 g/mol, it falls into the low-molecular-weight range. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2,3-Dihydro-1-benzofuran-6-ol meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
