5-[(ethylsulfanyl)methyl]-1,2-oxazole-3-carboxylic acid CAS 893640-81-8 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.

5-[(ethylsulfanyl)methyl]-1,2-oxazole-3-carboxylic acid (CAS 893640-81-8), molecular formula C7H9NO3S and molecular weight 187.22 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to an amide group, a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 5-[(ethylsulfanyl)methyl]-1,2-oxazole-3-carboxylic acid is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 187.22 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 5-[(ethylsulfanyl)methyl]-1,2-oxazole-3-carboxylic acid 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.
