Chemical Structure

[1-(Bromomethyl)naphthalen-2-yl]methanol CAS 2060057-94-3 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, [1-(Bromomethyl)naphthalen-2-yl]methanol is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 251.12 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

[1-(Bromomethyl)naphthalen-2-yl]methanol (CAS 2060057-94-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H11BrO and a molecular weight of 251.12 g/mol.

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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
