Chemical Structure

(Naphthalen-2-yl)methanesulfonyl chloride CAS 161448-78-8 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including (Naphthalen-2-yl)methanesulfonyl chloride.

(Naphthalen-2-yl)methanesulfonyl chloride (CAS 161448-78-8), molecular formula C11H9ClO2S and molecular weight 240.71 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, (Naphthalen-2-yl)methanesulfonyl chloride is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 240.71 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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

CATO manufactures (Naphthalen-2-yl)methanesulfonyl chloride 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.
