Chemical Structure

2-(Chloromethyl)-5-ethyl-1,3-oxazole CAS 1312601-07-2 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures 2-(Chloromethyl)-5-ethyl-1,3-oxazole 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.

2-(Chloromethyl)-5-ethyl-1,3-oxazole (CAS 1312601-07-2), molecular formula C6H8ClNO and molecular weight 145.59 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, 2-(Chloromethyl)-5-ethyl-1,3-oxazole is typically white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 145.59 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.
