5-((Benzyloxy)methyl)-3-chloro-2-methoxytetrahydrofuran CAS 58757-98-5 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

5-((Benzyloxy)methyl)-3-chloro-2-methoxytetrahydrofuran (CAS 58757-98-5), molecular formula C13H17ClO3 and molecular weight 256.73 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 5-((Benzyloxy)methyl)-3-chloro-2-methoxytetrahydrofuran is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 256.73 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

CATO manufactures 5-((Benzyloxy)methyl)-3-chloro-2-methoxytetrahydrofuran 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.
