Chemical Structure

2-Methyl-4-(3-nitrobenzylidene)oxazol-5(4H)-one CAS 57731-07-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-Methyl-4-(3-nitrobenzylidene)oxazol-5(4H)-one is closely related to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2-Methyl-4-(3-nitrobenzylidene)oxazol-5(4H)-one (CAS 57731-07-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H8N2O4 and a molecular weight of 232.19 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 2-Methyl-4-(3-nitrobenzylidene)oxazol-5(4H)-one (C11H8N2O4) 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).
