Chemical Structure

(R)-1-(Furan-2-yl)ethanol CAS 27948-61-4 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, (R)-1-(Furan-2-yl)ethanol is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 112.13 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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 supplies (R)-1-(Furan-2-yl)ethanol (CAS 27948-61-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6H8O2, MW 112.13 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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), (R)-1-(Furan-2-yl)ethanol 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.
