The molecular framework of 5-(4-(Trifluoromethyl)phenyl)oxazole-4-carboxylic acid (C11H6F3NO3) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine 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. 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).
5-(4-(Trifluoromethyl)phenyl)oxazole-4-carboxylic acid (CAS 220652-95-9), molecular formula C11H6F3NO3 and molecular weight 257.17 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
