Chemical Structure

4-(2-Chlorobenzylidene)-2-(p-tolyl)oxazol-5(4H)-one CAS 16352-74-2 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 4-(2-Chlorobenzylidene)-2-(p-tolyl)oxazol-5(4H)-one (CAS 16352-74-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C17H12ClNO2, MW 297.74 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 4-(2-Chlorobenzylidene)-2-(p-tolyl)oxazol-5(4H)-one (C17H12ClNO2) is characterized by a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), 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.

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.

CATO manufactures 4-(2-Chlorobenzylidene)-2-(p-tolyl)oxazol-5(4H)-one 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.
