Chemical Structure

Methyl 6-methoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene-1-carboxylate CAS 113967-27-4 chemical structure

Description

Methyl 6-methoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene-1-carboxylate (CAS 113967-27-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C13H16O3 and a molecular weight of 220.26 g/mol.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, Methyl 6-methoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene-1-carboxylate is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 220.26 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Methyl 6-methoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene-1-carboxylate meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
