Chemical Structure

3-(Bromomethyl)-5-(trifluoromethyl)-1,2,4-oxadiazole CAS 1609396-23-7 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 230.97 g/mol gives 3-(Bromomethyl)-5-(trifluoromethyl)-1,2,4-oxadiazole distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies 3-(Bromomethyl)-5-(trifluoromethyl)-1,2,4-oxadiazole (CAS 1609396-23-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C4H2BrF3N2O, MW 230.97 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 3-(Bromomethyl)-5-(trifluoromethyl)-1,2,4-oxadiazole (C4H2BrF3N2O) is characterized by an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/bromine substitution. 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. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

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.
