Chemical Structure

4,5-Dihydrofuran-2-carboxylic acid CAS 444777-27-9 chemical structure

Description

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.

4,5-Dihydrofuran-2-carboxylic acid (CAS 444777-27-9), molecular formula C5H6O3 and molecular weight 114.10 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 4,5-Dihydrofuran-2-carboxylic acid (C5H6O3) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, 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).

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.
