Chemical Structure

2-(1-Chloroethyl)-5-methylfuran CAS 917769-48-3 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, 2-(1-Chloroethyl)-5-methylfuran is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 144.60 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

2-(1-Chloroethyl)-5-methylfuran (CAS 917769-48-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C7H9ClO and a molecular weight of 144.60 g/mol.

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.
