Chemical Structure

2-Phenylfuran-3-carboxylic acid CAS 57697-76-4 chemical structure

Description

2-Phenylfuran-3-carboxylic acid (C11H8O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
