3-(2-Carboxyethyl)-2,5-dimethylbenzo[d]oxazol-3-ium bromide CAS 32353-63-2 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 3-(2-Carboxyethyl)-2,5-dimethylbenzo[d]oxazol-3-ium bromide.

3-(2-Carboxyethyl)-2,5-dimethylbenzo[d]oxazol-3-ium bromide (CAS 32353-63-2), molecular formula C12H14NO3Br and molecular weight 300.15 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C12H14NO3Br, 3-(2-Carboxyethyl)-2,5-dimethylbenzo[d]oxazol-3-ium bromide contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 300.15 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.
