2-(Chloromethyl)-5-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole CAS 696604-74-7 chemical structure

Description

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

2-(Chloromethyl)-5-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole (CAS 696604-74-7), molecular formula C11H11ClN2O3 and molecular weight 254.67 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, 2-(Chloromethyl)-5-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 254.67 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).

CATO manufactures 2-(Chloromethyl)-5-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole 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.
