Chemical Structure

3-(4-methoxy­­benz­oyl­)-2-methyl­benz­ofuran CAS 94541-06-7 chemical structure

Description

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

CATO supplies 3-(4-methoxy­­benz­oyl­)-2-methyl­benz­ofuran (CAS 94541-06-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C17H14O3, MW 266.29 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

3-(4-methoxy­­benz­oyl­)-2-methyl­benz­ofuran (C17H14O3) contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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.

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.
