Chemical Structure

2-Benzoylfuran CAS 2689-59-0 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 172.18 g/mol gives 2-Benzoylfuran distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies 2-Benzoylfuran (CAS 2689-59-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C11H8O2, MW 172.18 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

2-Benzoylfuran (C11H8O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
