Chemical Structure

3-(2-Chlorophenyl)-5-methyl-N-[4-(trifluoromethoxy)phenyl]-1,2-oxazole-4-carboxamide CAS 309740-96-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 3-(2-Chlorophenyl)-5-methyl-N-[4-(trifluoromethoxy)phenyl]-1,2-oxazole-4-carboxamide is closely related to a steroid core, 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.

3-(2-Chlorophenyl)-5-methyl-N-[4-(trifluoromethoxy)phenyl]-1,2-oxazole-4-carboxamide (CAS 309740-96-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C18H12ClF3N2O3 and a molecular weight of 396.75 g/mol.

3-(2-Chlorophenyl)-5-methyl-N-[4-(trifluoromethoxy)phenyl]-1,2-oxazole-4-carboxamide (C18H12ClF3N2O3) contains a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, 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.

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.
