Chemical Structure

2-Benzyl-4-(chloromethyl)furan CAS 33486-19-0 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 2-Benzyl-4-(chloromethyl)furan (CAS 33486-19-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H11ClO, MW 206.67 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

2-Benzyl-4-(chloromethyl)furan (C12H11ClO) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; 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.

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.
