Chemical Structure

3-{[(2-Furylmethyl)thio]methyl}-4-methoxybenzaldehyde CAS 438531-40-9 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 3-{[(2-Furylmethyl)thio]methyl}-4-methoxybenzaldehyde is closely related to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 3-{[(2-Furylmethyl)thio]methyl}-4-methoxybenzaldehyde (CAS 438531-40-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C14H14O3S, MW 262.32 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 3-{[(2-Furylmethyl)thio]methyl}-4-methoxybenzaldehyde (C14H14O3S) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 8.0, corresponding to approximately 8 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 262.32 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.

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.
