Chemical Structure

3-Chlorofuran CAS 50689-17-3 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 102.52 g/mol gives 3-Chlorofuran distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies 3-Chlorofuran (CAS 50689-17-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C4H3ClO, MW 102.52 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 3-Chlorofuran (C4H3ClO) is characterized by a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. 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. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.

CATO manufactures 3-Chlorofuran 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.
