Chemical Structure
Description
CATO supplies 9-methyl-2H-furo[2,3-h]chromen-2-one (CAS 78982-40-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H8O3, MW 200.19 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
9-methyl-2H-furo[2,3-h]chromen-2-one (C12H8O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 9-methyl-2H-furo[2,3-h]chromen-2-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.
