Chemical Structure

5-Chloro-1-naphthoic Acid CAS 16650-52-5 chemical structure

Description

5-Chloro-1-naphthoic Acid (C11H7ClO2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, 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 aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

5-Chloro-1-naphthoic Acid (CAS 16650-52-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H7ClO2 and a molecular weight of 206.63 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 5-Chloro-1-naphthoic Acid 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.
