5-Nitro-2-phenyl-1,3-benzoxazole CAS 891-43-0 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 5-Nitro-2-phenyl-1,3-benzoxazole (CAS 891-43-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C13H8N2O3, MW 240.21 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 5-Nitro-2-phenyl-1,3-benzoxazole (C13H8N2O3) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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 5-Nitro-2-phenyl-1,3-benzoxazole 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.
