Chemical Structure

4,4-Difluoro-3-methyl-1,3-oxazolidin-2-one CAS 701231-95-0 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), 4,4-Difluoro-3-methyl-1,3-oxazolidin-2-one meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.

4,4-Difluoro-3-methyl-1,3-oxazolidin-2-one (CAS 701231-95-0), molecular formula C4H5F2NO2 and molecular weight 137.08 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, 4,4-Difluoro-3-methyl-1,3-oxazolidin-2-one is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 137.08 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.
