Chemical Structure

2-[(2,4-Dichlorobenzyl)oxy]-1-naphthaldehyde CAS 321432-08-0 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, 2-[(2,4-Dichlorobenzyl)oxy]-1-naphthaldehyde (C18H12Cl2O2) contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 12.0, corresponding to approximately 12 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 331.19 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
