5-Methylfuran-3-carbaldehyde CAS 87241-04-1

Description

The occurrence of 5-Methylfuran-3-carbaldehyde is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

5-Methylfuran-3-carbaldehyde (CAS 87241-04-1), molecular formula C6H6O2 and molecular weight 110.11 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

5-Methylfuran-3-carbaldehyde (C6H6O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. 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), 5-Methylfuran-3-carbaldehyde 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.
