Chemical Structure

Ethyl 2-iodo-5-(trifluoromethyl)oxazole-4-carboxylate CAS 2770348-69-9 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of Ethyl 2-iodo-5-(trifluoromethyl)oxazole-4-carboxylate (C7H5F3INO3) is characterized by an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/iodine substitution, an aromatic ring system. 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. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

Ethyl 2-iodo-5-(trifluoromethyl)oxazole-4-carboxylate (CAS 2770348-69-9), molecular formula C7H5F3INO3 and molecular weight 335.02 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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.

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.
