Furan-2,4-dicarbaldehyde CAS 7039-97-6 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Furan-2,4-dicarbaldehyde (CAS 7039-97-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6H4O3, MW 124.09 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Furan-2,4-dicarbaldehyde (C6H4O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Furan-2,4-dicarbaldehyde 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.
