Chemical Structure

4-(Benzo[d]oxazol-2-yl)-2-methoxyphenol CAS 3164-07-6 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 4-(Benzo[d]oxazol-2-yl)-2-methoxyphenol (C14H11NO3) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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).

4-(Benzo[d]oxazol-2-yl)-2-methoxyphenol (CAS 3164-07-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C14H11NO3 and a molecular weight of 241.24 g/mol.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-(Benzo[d]oxazol-2-yl)-2-methoxyphenol meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
