Chemical Structure

Ethyl 2-cyano-3-(3,5,6-trimethylbenzofuran-2-yl)acrylate CAS 40763-18-6 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of Ethyl 2-cyano-3-(3,5,6-trimethylbenzofuran-2-yl)acrylate (C17H17NO3) is characterized by a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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 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).

Ethyl 2-cyano-3-(3,5,6-trimethylbenzofuran-2-yl)acrylate (CAS 40763-18-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C17H17NO3 and a molecular weight of 283.32 g/mol.

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.
