Chemical Structure

5-(3-Chloro-4-methylphenyl)furan-2-carbaldehyde CAS 57666-53-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 5-(3-Chloro-4-methylphenyl)furan-2-carbaldehyde is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

5-(3-Chloro-4-methylphenyl)furan-2-carbaldehyde (CAS 57666-53-2), molecular formula C12H9ClO2 and molecular weight 220.65 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 5-(3-Chloro-4-methylphenyl)furan-2-carbaldehyde (C12H9ClO2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, 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 aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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 5-(3-Chloro-4-methylphenyl)furan-2-carbaldehyde 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.
