Chemical Structure

7-Ethyl-2-oxiranyl-benzofuran CAS 69543-76-6 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 7-Ethyl-2-oxiranyl-benzofuran is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 188.22 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.

7-Ethyl-2-oxiranyl-benzofuran (CAS 69543-76-6), molecular formula C12H12O2 and molecular weight 188.22 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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

CATO manufactures 7-Ethyl-2-oxiranyl-benzofuran 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.
