2-(Carboxy(hydroxy)methyl)-5-ethylbenzo[d]oxazole (CAS 1803746-52-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H11NO4 and a molecular weight of 221.21 g/mol.
The molecular framework of 2-(Carboxy(hydroxy)methyl)-5-ethylbenzo[d]oxazole (C11H11NO4) is characterized by an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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 aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
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.
