Chemical Structure

1-(4-Methyl-2-phenyloxazol-5-yl)ethanone CAS 4620-51-3 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 1-(4-Methyl-2-phenyloxazol-5-yl)ethanone.

1-(4-Methyl-2-phenyloxazol-5-yl)ethanone (CAS 4620-51-3), molecular formula C12H11NO2 and molecular weight 201.22 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 1-(4-Methyl-2-phenyloxazol-5-yl)ethanone is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 201.22 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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