Chemical Structure

4,5-Dimethyl-2,3-dihydro-1,3-oxazol-2-one CAS 59167-68-9 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.

4,5-Dimethyl-2,3-dihydro-1,3-oxazol-2-one (CAS 59167-68-9), molecular formula C5H7NO2 and molecular weight 113.11 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, 4,5-Dimethyl-2,3-dihydro-1,3-oxazol-2-one is typically white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 113.11 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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