Chemical Structure

ethyl 2-oxo-2H-1,3,4-oxathiazole-5-carboxylate CAS 61689-40-5 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies ethyl 2-oxo-2H-1,3,4-oxathiazole-5-carboxylate (CAS 61689-40-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C5H5NO4S, MW 175.16 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carbohydrate-derived structure, an amide group, a sulfone group, ethyl 2-oxo-2H-1,3,4-oxathiazole-5-carboxylate is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 175.16 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.

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.
