Chemical Structure

2-(2-Phenylbenzo[d]oxazol-5-yl)acetic acid CAS 38196-02-0 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 253.25 g/mol gives 2-(2-Phenylbenzo[d]oxazol-5-yl)acetic acid distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2-(2-Phenylbenzo[d]oxazol-5-yl)acetic acid (CAS 38196-02-0), molecular formula C15H11NO3 and molecular weight 253.25 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 2-(2-Phenylbenzo[d]oxazol-5-yl)acetic acid (C15H11NO3) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 11.0, corresponding to approximately 11 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 253.25 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.

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-(2-Phenylbenzo[d]oxazol-5-yl)acetic acid 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.
