2-Chloromethylfuran CAS 617-88-9

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 116.55 g/mol gives 2-Chloromethylfuran distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2-Chloromethylfuran (CAS 617-88-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C5H5ClO and a molecular weight of 116.55 g/mol.

Structurally, 2-Chloromethylfuran (C5H5ClO) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 3.0, corresponding to approximately 3 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 116.55 g/mol, it falls into the low-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
