5-ethyl-2,5-dihydrofuran-2-one CAS 2407-43-4 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

5-ethyl-2,5-dihydrofuran-2-one (CAS 2407-43-4), molecular formula C6H8O2 and molecular weight 112.13 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C6H8O2, 5-ethyl-2,5-dihydrofuran-2-one contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 112.13 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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).

CATO manufactures 5-ethyl-2,5-dihydrofuran-2-one 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.
