Chemical Structure

2-methyl-5-(trichloromethyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole CAS 1195-26-2 chemical structure

Description

2-methyl-5-(trichloromethyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole (CAS 1195-26-2), molecular formula C4H3Cl3N2O and molecular weight 201.44 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

2-methyl-5-(trichloromethyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole (C4H3Cl3N2O) contains an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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).

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-methyl-5-(trichloromethyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
