Chemical Structure

4-Fluoro-5-methylisoxazol-3(2H)-one CAS 131573-78-9 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 4-Fluoro-5-methylisoxazol-3(2H)-one.

4-Fluoro-5-methylisoxazol-3(2H)-one (CAS 131573-78-9), molecular formula C4H4FNO2 and molecular weight 117.08 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

4-Fluoro-5-methylisoxazol-3(2H)-one (C4H4FNO2) contains an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.

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.
