Chemical Structure

2-naphthyl methacrylate CAS 10475-46-4 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 222.32 g/mol gives 2-naphthyl methacrylate distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2-naphthyl methacrylate (CAS 10475-46-4), molecular formula C14H22O2 and molecular weight 222.32 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 2-naphthyl methacrylate (C14H22O2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. 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. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.
