Chemical Structure

6-Hydroxy-1-tetralone CAS 3470-50-6 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 162.19 g/mol gives 6-Hydroxy-1-tetralone distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

6-Hydroxy-1-tetralone (CAS 3470-50-6), molecular formula C10H10O2 and molecular weight 162.19 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

6-Hydroxy-1-tetralone (C10H10O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. 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 high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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), 6-Hydroxy-1-tetralone 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.
