Chemical Structure

2-(tert-Butyl)-4-methylfuran CAS 6141-68-0 chemical structure

Description

2-(tert-Butyl)-4-methylfuran (CAS 6141-68-0), molecular formula C9H14O and molecular weight 138.21 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 2-(tert-Butyl)-4-methylfuran (C9H14O) is characterized by a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, 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).

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

CATO manufactures 2-(tert-Butyl)-4-methylfuran 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.
