Chemical Structure

Ethyl 4-acetyl-5-hydroxy-2-methylfuran-3-carboxylate CAS 62409-40-9 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures Ethyl 4-acetyl-5-hydroxy-2-methylfuran-3-carboxylate 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.

Ethyl 4-acetyl-5-hydroxy-2-methylfuran-3-carboxylate (CAS 62409-40-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H12O5 and a molecular weight of 212.20 g/mol.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, Ethyl 4-acetyl-5-hydroxy-2-methylfuran-3-carboxylate is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 212.20 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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