Benzoxazole by Research Lab Fine Chem Industries is a high grade reagent. Also known as 1-Oxa-3-aza-1H-indene, this is an organic compound with a benzene-fused oxazole ring structure. The reagent is available as a white powder which is insoluble in water. It has a melting point of 27 to 30 C, and a boiling point of 182 C. While this reagent is stable under general conditions, it is incompatible with strong oxidizing agents. CAS No.: 273-53-0 Quantity Provided: 25 gm per bottle Molecular formula: C7H5NO Molecular weight: 119.12 Assay: minimum 98 %Benzoxazole has a variety of applications in chemical and biological sectors. This reagent is involved in the organic synthesis of a variety of intermediates. This reagent finds applications in research as a starting material for the synthesis of larger, generally bioactive structures. The aromaticity of Benzoxazole makes it relatively stable, although as a heterocycle, it has reactive sites which allow functionalization. It is found in the chemical structures of pharmaceutical drugs such as flunoxaprofen. Derivatives of benzoxazole are of interest for optical brighteners in laundry detergents. This reagent is suitable for industrial synthesis of products and research applications.
