Chemical Structure

4-Methyl-3H-1,3-oxazole-2-thione CAS 13016-17-6 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-Methyl-3H-1,3-oxazole-2-thione is closely related to an amide group, sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

4-Methyl-3H-1,3-oxazole-2-thione (CAS 13016-17-6), molecular formula C4H5NOS and molecular weight 115.15 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 4-Methyl-3H-1,3-oxazole-2-thione (C4H5NOS) contains an amide group, sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 3.0, corresponding to approximately 3 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 115.15 g/mol, it falls into the low-molecular-weight range. 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), 4-Methyl-3H-1,3-oxazole-2-thione 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.
