Chemical Structure

2-Bromobenzoxazole CAS 68005-30-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-Bromobenzoxazole is closely related to an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2-Bromobenzoxazole (CAS 68005-30-1), molecular formula C7H4BrNO and molecular weight 198.02 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 2-Bromobenzoxazole (C7H4BrNO) is characterized by an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. 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. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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

CATO manufactures 2-Bromobenzoxazole under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
