Chemical Structure

5-(4-(Methylsulfonyl)phenyl)furan-2-carboxylic acid CAS 893738-07-3 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 5-(4-(Methylsulfonyl)phenyl)furan-2-carboxylic acid (CAS 893738-07-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H10O5S, MW 266.27 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 5-(4-(Methylsulfonyl)phenyl)furan-2-carboxylic acid (C12H10O5S) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 8.0, corresponding to approximately 8 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 266.27 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.
