The molecular framework of 3-Benzylidene-5-phenylfuran-2(3H)-one (C17H12O2) is characterized by a steroid core, 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 high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
3-Benzylidene-5-phenylfuran-2(3H)-one (CAS 4361-96-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C17H12O2 and a molecular weight of 248.28 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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 3-Benzylidene-5-phenylfuran-2(3H)-one meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
