2-(2-(4-Bromophenyl)-5-methyloxazol-4-yl)acetonitrile CAS 328918-83-8 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 2-(2-(4-Bromophenyl)-5-methyloxazol-4-yl)acetonitrile.

2-(2-(4-Bromophenyl)-5-methyloxazol-4-yl)acetonitrile (CAS 328918-83-8), molecular formula C12H9BrN2O and molecular weight 277.12 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 2-(2-(4-Bromophenyl)-5-methyloxazol-4-yl)acetonitrile (C12H9BrN2O) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 9.0, corresponding to approximately 9 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 277.12 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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), 2-(2-(4-Bromophenyl)-5-methyloxazol-4-yl)acetonitrile 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.
