Chemical Structure

5-(2,4-Dichlorophenoxymethyl)furan-2-carboxylic acid CAS 74556-60-8 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), 5-(2,4-Dichlorophenoxymethyl)furan-2-carboxylic acid 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.

5-(2,4-Dichlorophenoxymethyl)furan-2-carboxylic acid (CAS 74556-60-8), molecular formula C12H8Cl2O4 and molecular weight 287.10 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 5-(2,4-Dichlorophenoxymethyl)furan-2-carboxylic acid (C12H8Cl2O4) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, 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).

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