Chemical Structure

3-Phenyltetrahydrofuran-2-ol CAS 36866-68-9 chemical structure

Description

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.

3-Phenyltetrahydrofuran-2-ol (CAS 36866-68-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H12O2 and a molecular weight of 164.20 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 3-Phenyltetrahydrofuran-2-ol (C10H12O2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

As a certified reference material (CRM), 3-Phenyltetrahydrofuran-2-ol 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.
