Chemical Structure

Ethyl 3-[3-chloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-2-yl]-5-methyl-1,2-oxazole-4-carboxylate CAS 303997-38-8 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Ethyl 3-[3-chloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-2-yl]-5-methyl-1,2-oxazole-4-carboxylate is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Ethyl 3-[3-chloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-2-yl]-5-methyl-1,2-oxazole-4-carboxylate (CAS 303997-38-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C13H10ClF3N2O3, MW 334.68 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, Ethyl 3-[3-chloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-2-yl]-5-methyl-1,2-oxazole-4-carboxylate (C13H10ClF3N2O3) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 8.0, corresponding to approximately 8 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 334.68 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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 Ethyl 3-[3-chloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-2-yl]-5-methyl-1,2-oxazole-4-carboxylate under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation.
