Chemical Structure

5-nitro-1,3-benzoxazole-2-carbonitrile CAS 35699-00-4 chemical structure

Description

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.

CATO supplies 5-nitro-1,3-benzoxazole-2-carbonitrile (CAS 35699-00-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H3N3O3, MW 189.13 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 5-nitro-1,3-benzoxazole-2-carbonitrile (C8H3N3O3) is characterized by an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, 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).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
