Chemical Structure

(3AS,8bS)-7-bromo-3a,8b-dihydro-3H-cyclopenta[b]benzofuran-5-carboxylic acid CAS 88277-50-3 chemical structure

Description

(3AS,8bS)-7-bromo-3a,8b-dihydro-3H-cyclopenta[b]benzofuran-5-carboxylic acid (C12H9BrO3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, 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 high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

(3AS,8bS)-7-bromo-3a,8b-dihydro-3H-cyclopenta[b]benzofuran-5-carboxylic acid (CAS 88277-50-3), molecular formula C12H9BrO3 and molecular weight 281.10 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
