Chemical Structure

6-Fluoro-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene CAS 2840-40-6 chemical structure

Description

Owing to fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 6-Fluoro-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 150.19 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

CATO supplies 6-Fluoro-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene (CAS 2840-40-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H11F, MW 150.19 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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.
