Chemical Structure

2-(Naphthalen-2-yl)propanoic acid CAS 13350-60-2 chemical structure

Description

2-(Naphthalen-2-yl)propanoic acid (C13H12O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. 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 presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

2-(Naphthalen-2-yl)propanoic acid (CAS 13350-60-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C13H12O2 and a molecular weight of 200.23 g/mol.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
