Chemical Structure

(S)-Methyl 2-ethyl-5-hydroxy-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-2-carboxylate CAS 653578-63-3 chemical structure

Description

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

CATO supplies (S)-Methyl 2-ethyl-5-hydroxy-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-2-carboxylate (CAS 653578-63-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H14O4, MW 222.24 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, (S)-Methyl 2-ethyl-5-hydroxy-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-2-carboxylate is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 222.24 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.

CATO manufactures (S)-Methyl 2-ethyl-5-hydroxy-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-2-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.
