Chemical Structure

2-Amino-1-chloronaphthalene CAS 16452-11-2 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.

2-Amino-1-chloronaphthalene (CAS 16452-11-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H8ClN and a molecular weight of 177.63 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 2-Amino-1-chloronaphthalene (C10H8ClN) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Amino-1-chloronaphthalene 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.
