Chemical Structure

2-(6-methoxybenzofuran-3-yl)acetic acid CAS 69716-05-8 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 2-(6-methoxybenzofuran-3-yl)acetic acid (CAS 69716-05-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C11H18O4, MW 214.26 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 2-(6-methoxybenzofuran-3-yl)acetic acid is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 214.26 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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 2-(6-methoxybenzofuran-3-yl)acetic acid 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.
