Description
5-Pentyl-2,5-dihydrofuran-2-one is a lactone-type biochemical reagent supplied at a minimum purity of 95 %. It is identified by CAS number 21963-26-8 and the empirical formula C₉H₁₄O₂, with a molar mass of 154,21 g/mol and a density of 0,984 g/cm³. These defined physicochemical parameters support consistent handling in synthetic and analytical laboratory workflows. The compound is offered in a 50 mg pack size, suited to method development, reference work, and small-scale experimental use where controlled quantities of a well-characterised furanone derivative are required. Material of this specification is available from manufacturer Carl ROTH for research and biochemical applications. As a dihydrofuran-2-one bearing a pentyl substituent, it fits naturally into collections of oxygen heterocycles used in organic synthesis, structure–activity studies, and related laboratory investigations. Clear identity data and compact packaging help laboratories integrate the reagent efficiently into existing protocols without unnecessary excess material.

Questions about 5-Pentyl-2,5-dihydrofuran-2-one, min. 95 %, 50 mg
What is this article?
5-Pentyl-2,5-dihydrofuran-2-one, min. 95 %, 50 mg is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Fluorescent dyes & labels, inside Dyes, stains & indicators, in Lab chemicals.
A fluorescent dye absorbs at one wavelength and emits at a longer one. As a label it is attached to a protein, a nucleic acid or a cell. Excitation and emission maxima, and the reactive group if it must conjugate, are the specification. The colour name does not tell you the wavelengths.
A dye or a stain binds, or changes colour, so that something invisible becomes visible. An indicator changes at a pH or a redox point. A fluorescent dye absorbs one wavelength and emits another, which is how a microscope or a plate reader picks it out. The excitation and emission, or the transition interval, are the specification. The colour name on the label is not. Structures are on PubChem under IUPAC names. Methods are in the PubMed literature.
