Chemical Structure

5-(2-Formylphenyl)-2-furoic acid CAS 400744-92-5 chemical structure

Description

5-(2-Formylphenyl)-2-furoic acid (CAS 400744-92-5), molecular formula C12H8O4 and molecular weight 216.19 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

5-(2-Formylphenyl)-2-furoic acid (C12H8O4) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring 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 aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

CATO manufactures 5-(2-Formylphenyl)-2-furoic acid under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
