Chemical Structure
Description
Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 164.16 g/mol gives 5-Methoxybenzofuran-3(2H)-one distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
CATO supplies 5-Methoxybenzofuran-3(2H)-one (CAS 39581-55-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H8O3, MW 164.16 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
The molecular framework of 5-Methoxybenzofuran-3(2H)-one (C9H8O3) 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 the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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).
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
