Chemical Structure

1-(Difluoromethyl)-6-methylnaphthalene CAS 1261885-45-3 chemical structure

Description

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 supplies 1-(Difluoromethyl)-6-methylnaphthalene (CAS 1261885-45-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H10F2, MW 192.20 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 1-(Difluoromethyl)-6-methylnaphthalene is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 192.20 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.

CATO manufactures 1-(Difluoromethyl)-6-methylnaphthalene 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.
