Chemical Structure
Description
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.
7-(tert-Butyl)-5-ethylbenzofuran-2(3H)-one (CAS 742080-01-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C14H18O2 and a molecular weight of 218.29 g/mol.
The molecular framework of 7-(tert-Butyl)-5-ethylbenzofuran-2(3H)-one (C14H18O2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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).
As a certified reference material (CRM), 7-(tert-Butyl)-5-ethylbenzofuran-2(3H)-one 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.
