2-(2-Chlorobenzo[d]oxazol-5-yl)acetonitrile CAS 1803803-44-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-(2-Chlorobenzo[d]oxazol-5-yl)acetonitrile is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 2-(2-Chlorobenzo[d]oxazol-5-yl)acetonitrile (CAS 1803803-44-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H5ClN2O, MW 192.60 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C9H5ClN2O, 2-(2-Chlorobenzo[d]oxazol-5-yl)acetonitrile contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 192.60 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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).

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.
