Chemical Structure

Naphthalene-1,7-dicarboxylic acid CAS 2089-91-0 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Naphthalene-1,7-dicarboxylic acid is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Naphthalene-1,7-dicarboxylic acid (CAS 2089-91-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H8O4 and a molecular weight of 216.19 g/mol.

Naphthalene-1,7-dicarboxylic acid (C12H8O4) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, 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).

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), Naphthalene-1,7-dicarboxylic 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.
