Chemical Structure

6-Ethyl-3-methylbenzofuran CAS 71507-43-2 chemical structure

Description

6-Ethyl-3-methylbenzofuran (C11H12O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
