The molecular framework of 2-(2-Aminooxazol-4-yl)acetic acid (C5H6N2O3) 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).
2-(2-Aminooxazol-4-yl)acetic acid (CAS 6497-02-5), molecular formula C5H6N2O3 and molecular weight 142.11 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
