Chemical Structure

Ethyl 8-(1-naphthyl)-8-oxooctanoate CAS 362669-45-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Ethyl 8-(1-naphthyl)-8-oxooctanoate is closely related to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Ethyl 8-(1-naphthyl)-8-oxooctanoate (CAS 362669-45-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C20H24O3 and a molecular weight of 312.40 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C20H24O3, Ethyl 8-(1-naphthyl)-8-oxooctanoate contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 312.40 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.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

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.
