Produktinformation

• Name: 2-Acetyl-7-hydroxybenzofuran
• Marke: Biosynth
• Beschreibung: 2-Acetyl-7-hydroxybenzofuran is an organic solvent that belongs to the class of phenols. It has been shown to be a chiral molecule with two optical isomers. This compound is readily soluble in water and hydrochloric acid, but not in chlorobenzene or ethers. The hydroxyl group on the 2-position of the benzofuran ring undergoes dehydration when exposed to high temperatures, which leads to the formation of 2-acetyl-6-hydroxybenzofuran. The dichroism of this compound can be used for biomolecular research, as it has been shown that it can be used to detect and identify proteins. This process relies on differential absorption of light due to the presence of achiral molecules such as sugars and amino acids in solution.
