Chemical Structure

4-(Chloromethyl)-2-(2,4-dimethylphenyl)-5-methyl-1,3-oxazole CAS 1280575-18-9 chemical structure

Description

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.

4-(Chloromethyl)-2-(2,4-dimethylphenyl)-5-methyl-1,3-oxazole (CAS 1280575-18-9), molecular formula C13H14ClNO and molecular weight 235.71 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, 4-(Chloromethyl)-2-(2,4-dimethylphenyl)-5-methyl-1,3-oxazole is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 235.71 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.
