3-(2-Chlorophenyl)-5-[(1Z)-1-(dimethylamino)-3-oxoprop-1-en-2-yl]-1,2-oxazole-4-carbonitrile CAS 400087-67-4 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.

3-(2-Chlorophenyl)-5-[(1Z)-1-(dimethylamino)-3-oxoprop-1-en-2-yl]-1,2-oxazole-4-carbonitrile (CAS 400087-67-4), molecular formula C15H12ClN3O2 and molecular weight 301.73 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 3-(2-Chlorophenyl)-5-[(1Z)-1-(dimethylamino)-3-oxoprop-1-en-2-yl]-1,2-oxazole-4-carbonitrile (C15H12ClN3O2) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. 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 301.73 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.
