Chemical Structure

2-(4-Nitrophenyl)oxazole CAS 62882-08-0 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-(4-Nitrophenyl)oxazole 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.

CATO supplies 2-(4-Nitrophenyl)oxazole (CAS 62882-08-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H6N2O3, MW 190.16 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 2-(4-Nitrophenyl)oxazole is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 190.16 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.

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.
