Chemical Structure

6-methoxy-1-benzofuran-2-carbaldehyde CAS 53860-74-5 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 6-methoxy-1-benzofuran-2-carbaldehyde (C10H16O3) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, 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 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).

CATO supplies 6-methoxy-1-benzofuran-2-carbaldehyde (CAS 53860-74-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H16O3, MW 184.23 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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.
