Chemical Structure

2-[3-(4-bromophenyl)-1,2,4-oxadiazol-5-yl]acetonitrile CAS 937629-16-8 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-[3-(4-bromophenyl)-1,2,4-oxadiazol-5-yl]acetonitrile is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 2-[3-(4-bromophenyl)-1,2,4-oxadiazol-5-yl]acetonitrile (CAS 937629-16-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H6BrN3O, MW 264.08 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 2-[3-(4-bromophenyl)-1,2,4-oxadiazol-5-yl]acetonitrile (C10H6BrN3O) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

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.
