Chemical Structure

(Z)-6-(3,5-Dimethoxystyryl)benzofuran-4-ol CAS 832128-21-9 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.

(Z)-6-(3,5-Dimethoxystyryl)benzofuran-4-ol (CAS 832128-21-9), molecular formula C18H16O4 and molecular weight 296.32 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, (Z)-6-(3,5-Dimethoxystyryl)benzofuran-4-ol (C18H16O4) contains a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 11.0, corresponding to approximately 11 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 296.32 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
