Chemical Structure

1-(Furan-2-yl)propan-1-one CAS 3194-15-8 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 1-(Furan-2-yl)propan-1-one is typically off-white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 124.14 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

1-(Furan-2-yl)propan-1-one (CAS 3194-15-8), molecular formula C7H8O2 and molecular weight 124.14 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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), 1-(Furan-2-yl)propan-1-one 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.
