Chemical Structure

2-(4-Bromophenyl)-5-ethyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole CAS 160377-56-0 chemical structure

Description

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.

2-(4-Bromophenyl)-5-ethyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole (CAS 160377-56-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H9BrN2O and a molecular weight of 253.10 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C10H9BrN2O, 2-(4-Bromophenyl)-5-ethyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 253.10 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.
