Chemical Structure

1-(5-Nitrofuran-2-yl)butan-1-one CAS 64258-96-4 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-(5-Nitrofuran-2-yl)butan-1-one meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.

1-(5-Nitrofuran-2-yl)butan-1-one (CAS 64258-96-4), molecular formula C5H13N3SH2O4S and molecular weight 245.31 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carbohydrate-derived structure, an amide group, a sulfone group, 1-(5-Nitrofuran-2-yl)butan-1-one is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 245.31 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.
