Chemical Structure

Ethyl 3-[4-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl]-1,2,4-oxadiazole-5-carboxylate CAS 1181676-02-7 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Ethyl 3-[4-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl]-1,2,4-oxadiazole-5-carboxylate is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Ethyl 3-[4-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl]-1,2,4-oxadiazole-5-carboxylate (CAS 1181676-02-7), molecular formula C12H12N2O5S and molecular weight 296.30 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Ethyl 3-[4-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl]-1,2,4-oxadiazole-5-carboxylate is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 296.30 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.

CATO manufactures Ethyl 3-[4-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl]-1,2,4-oxadiazole-5-carboxylate under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
