Chemical Structure

4-(Chloromethyl)-5-methyl-2-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)oxazole CAS 678164-78-8 chemical structure

Description

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

CATO supplies 4-(Chloromethyl)-5-methyl-2-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)oxazole (CAS 678164-78-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H9ClF3NO, MW 275.65 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C12H9ClF3NO, 4-(Chloromethyl)-5-methyl-2-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)oxazole contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 275.65 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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).

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.
