2-Methylbenzofuran CAS 4265-25-2 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures 2-Methylbenzofuran 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.

2-Methylbenzofuran (CAS 4265-25-2), molecular formula C9H8O and molecular weight 132.16 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

2-Methylbenzofuran (C9H8O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. Its physicochemical properties are representative of its class; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.
