Chemical Structure

5-(Hydroxymethyl)benzo[d]oxazole-2-carbonitrile CAS 1804198-89-7 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 5-(Hydroxymethyl)benzo[d]oxazole-2-carbonitrile (CAS 1804198-89-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H6N2O2, MW 174.16 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

5-(Hydroxymethyl)benzo[d]oxazole-2-carbonitrile (C9H6N2O2) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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 5-(Hydroxymethyl)benzo[d]oxazole-2-carbonitrile 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.
