(E)-[1-(1,3-Thiazol-2-yl)ethylidene]amino 3-(2-chlorophenyl)-5-methyl-1,2-oxazole-4-carboxylate (CAS 866149-45-3), molecular formula C16H12ClN3O3S and molecular weight 361.80 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Structurally, (E)-[1-(1,3-Thiazol-2-yl)ethylidene]amino 3-(2-chlorophenyl)-5-methyl-1,2-oxazole-4-carboxylate (C16H12ClN3O3S) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 12.0, corresponding to approximately 12 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 361.80 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. 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).
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.
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.
