Chemical Structure

(S)-2-(6-Methoxynaphthalen-2-yl)propan-1-ol CAS 26159-36-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of (S)-2-(6-Methoxynaphthalen-2-yl)propan-1-ol is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

(S)-2-(6-Methoxynaphthalen-2-yl)propan-1-ol (CAS 26159-36-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C14H16O2 and a molecular weight of 216.28 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C14H16O2, (S)-2-(6-Methoxynaphthalen-2-yl)propan-1-ol contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 216.28 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.
