Chemical Structure

6-(1,3-Dioxolan-2-yl)-2-fluorobenzofuran CAS 648915-97-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 6-(1,3-Dioxolan-2-yl)-2-fluorobenzofuran is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

6-(1,3-Dioxolan-2-yl)-2-fluorobenzofuran (CAS 648915-97-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H9FO3 and a molecular weight of 208.19 g/mol.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 6-(1,3-Dioxolan-2-yl)-2-fluorobenzofuran is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 208.19 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.

CATO manufactures 6-(1,3-Dioxolan-2-yl)-2-fluorobenzofuran 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.
