Chemical Structure

2-(3-(Furan-2-yl)phenyl)acetic acid CAS 568628-55-7 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 2-(3-(Furan-2-yl)phenyl)acetic acid (CAS 568628-55-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H10O3, MW 202.21 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 2-(3-(Furan-2-yl)phenyl)acetic acid (C12H10O3) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. 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.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-(3-(Furan-2-yl)phenyl)acetic acid 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.
