Chemical Structure

3-(1,2-benzoxazol-3-yl)propanenitrile CAS 59899-56-8 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 172.18 g/mol gives 3-(1,2-benzoxazol-3-yl)propanenitrile distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

3-(1,2-benzoxazol-3-yl)propanenitrile (CAS 59899-56-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H8N2O and a molecular weight of 172.18 g/mol.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 3-(1,2-benzoxazol-3-yl)propanenitrile is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 172.18 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 3-(1,2-benzoxazol-3-yl)propanenitrile 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.
