4-(4-Methoxyphenyl)-4-methyl-2-phenyloxazol-5(4H)-one CAS 545377-43-3 chemical structure

Description

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.

4-(4-Methoxyphenyl)-4-methyl-2-phenyloxazol-5(4H)-one (CAS 545377-43-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C17H15NO3 and a molecular weight of 281.31 g/mol.

Owing to a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 4-(4-Methoxyphenyl)-4-methyl-2-phenyloxazol-5(4H)-one is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 281.31 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-(4-Methoxyphenyl)-4-methyl-2-phenyloxazol-5(4H)-one 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.
