Chemical Structure

Tetrahydro-3-oxo-2-furancarboxylic Acid Ethyl Ester CAS 773140-46-8 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Tetrahydro-3-oxo-2-furancarboxylic Acid Ethyl Ester is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Tetrahydro-3-oxo-2-furancarboxylic Acid Ethyl Ester (CAS 773140-46-8), molecular formula C7H10O4 and molecular weight 158.15 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Tetrahydro-3-oxo-2-furancarboxylic Acid Ethyl Ester is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 158.15 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).

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.

CATO manufactures Tetrahydro-3-oxo-2-furancarboxylic Acid Ethyl Ester 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.
