Chemical Structure

2-(Naphthalen-2-yl)propan-1-ol CAS 38964-52-2 chemical structure

Description

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

CATO supplies 2-(Naphthalen-2-yl)propan-1-ol (CAS 38964-52-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C13H14O, MW 186.25 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 2-(Naphthalen-2-yl)propan-1-ol is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 186.25 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
