Chemical Structure

(Z)-2-(Acenaphthylen-1(2H)-ylidene)tetrahydrofuran CAS 88970-58-5 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of (Z)-2-(Acenaphthylen-1(2H)-ylidene)tetrahydrofuran is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

(Z)-2-(Acenaphthylen-1(2H)-ylidene)tetrahydrofuran (CAS 88970-58-5), molecular formula C16H14O and molecular weight 222.28 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, (Z)-2-(Acenaphthylen-1(2H)-ylidene)tetrahydrofuran (C16H14O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 10.0, corresponding to approximately 10 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 222.28 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.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

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.
