Description
Methyl 2-methyl-3-furancarboxylate is a furan carboxylate ester offered at a minimum purity of 95 % for organic synthesis and laboratory chemistry. It is defined by CAS number 6141-58-8, the empirical formula C₇H₈O₃ and a molar mass of 140,14 g/mol. Physical data include a density of 1,108 g/cm³, a boiling point of 75 °C and a flash point of 54,5 °C, supporting safe handling assessments and process planning. The compound is Synthetic and medicinal-chemistry groups can use this methyl ester where a characterised 2-methyl-3-furancarboxylate building block is required. Available from manufacturer Carl ROTH, the material fits catalogues of fine chemicals and biochemicals. Documented purity, formula and physical constants help ensure consistent dosing, solvent choice and documentation. Laboratories engaged in heterocyclic chemistry, flavour-related intermediates or broader organic methodology can incorporate the ester into exploratory synthesis and scale-up trials with clear identity data.

Questions about Methyl 2-methyl-3-furancarboxylate, min. 95 %, 10 g
What is this article?
Methyl 2-methyl-3-furancarboxylate, min. 95 %, 10 g 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.
