Chemical Structure

Ethyl 3-(5-formylfuran-2-yl)benzoate CAS 294665-50-2 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Ethyl 3-(5-formylfuran-2-yl)benzoate (CAS 294665-50-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C14H12O4, MW 244.24 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Ethyl 3-(5-formylfuran-2-yl)benzoate (C14H12O4) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system. It is notably hygroscopic, 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 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Ethyl 3-(5-formylfuran-2-yl)benzoate 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.
