Chemical Structure

2-(Cyclopentylmethyl)-5-methylfuran CAS 89225-15-0 chemical structure

Description

2-(Cyclopentylmethyl)-5-methylfuran (CAS 89225-15-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H16O and a molecular weight of 164.24 g/mol.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 2-(Cyclopentylmethyl)-5-methylfuran is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 164.24 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-(Cyclopentylmethyl)-5-methylfuran 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.
