Chemical Structure

4-Benzylidene-2-(thiophen-2-yl)oxazol-5(4H)-one CAS 72978-96-2 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-Benzylidene-2-(thiophen-2-yl)oxazol-5(4H)-one (CAS 72978-96-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C14H9NO2S, MW 255.29 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

4-Benzylidene-2-(thiophen-2-yl)oxazol-5(4H)-one (C14H9NO2S) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
