Chemical Structure

2-Hydroxy-3-(1-naphthyl)propanoic Acid CAS 105927-85-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-Hydroxy-3-(1-naphthyl)propanoic Acid is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2-Hydroxy-3-(1-naphthyl)propanoic Acid (CAS 105927-85-3), molecular formula C13H12O3 and molecular weight 216.23 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

2-Hydroxy-3-(1-naphthyl)propanoic Acid (C13H12O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

CATO manufactures 2-Hydroxy-3-(1-naphthyl)propanoic 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.
