Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 182.30 g/mol gives 2-Naphthyl ethanol distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
2-Naphthyl ethanol (CAS 1485-07-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H22O and a molecular weight of 182.30 g/mol.
Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 2-Naphthyl ethanol is typically white to off-white low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 182.30 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.
CATO manufactures 2-Naphthyl ethanol 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.
