Chemical Structure

4-Bromo-5-methoxyfuran-2(5H)-one CAS 62594-18-7 chemical structure

Description

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.

4-Bromo-5-methoxyfuran-2(5H)-one (CAS 62594-18-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C5H5BrO3 and a molecular weight of 193.00 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 4-Bromo-5-methoxyfuran-2(5H)-one (C5H5BrO3) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. 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. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

CATO manufactures 4-Bromo-5-methoxyfuran-2(5H)-one 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.
