Chemical Structure

2-(Furan-2-yl)-3-hydroxy-4H-chromen-4-one CAS 78933-17-2 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 2-(Furan-2-yl)-3-hydroxy-4H-chromen-4-one is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 228.20 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

CATO supplies 2-(Furan-2-yl)-3-hydroxy-4H-chromen-4-one (CAS 78933-17-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C13H8O4, MW 228.20 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
