Chemical Structure

N-(5-Chloro-2-oxo-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-3-yl)acetamide CAS 42493-04-9 chemical structure

Description

N-(5-Chloro-2-oxo-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-3-yl)acetamide (CAS 42493-04-9), molecular formula C10H8ClNO3 and molecular weight 225.63 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of N-(5-Chloro-2-oxo-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-3-yl)acetamide (C10H8ClNO3) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. 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. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.
