The occurrence of 3,5-dimethyl-1,2-oxazole-4-carbonitrile is closely related to an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
3,5-dimethyl-1,2-oxazole-4-carbonitrile (CAS 31301-46-9), molecular formula C6H6N2O and molecular weight 122.12 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 3,5-dimethyl-1,2-oxazole-4-carbonitrile is typically off-white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 122.12 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).
