Chemical Structure

2-Chloro-6-fluorobenzo[d]oxazole CAS 153403-53-3 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Chloro-6-fluorobenzo[d]oxazole 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.

2-Chloro-6-fluorobenzo[d]oxazole (CAS 153403-53-3), molecular formula C7H3ClFNO and molecular weight 171.56 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 2-Chloro-6-fluorobenzo[d]oxazole (C7H3ClFNO) is characterized by an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.
