Chemical Structure

5-{[(2-Fluorobenzyl)thio]methyl}-2-furoic acid CAS 899710-20-4 chemical structure

Description

5-{[(2-Fluorobenzyl)thio]methyl}-2-furoic acid (C13H11FO3S) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine 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.

CATO supplies 5-{[(2-Fluorobenzyl)thio]methyl}-2-furoic acid (CAS 899710-20-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C13H11FO3S, MW 266.29 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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.

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.
