2,6-Di-tert-butylnaphthalene CAS 3905-64-4 chemical structure

Description

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

2,6-Di-tert-butylnaphthalene (CAS 3905-64-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C18H24 and a molecular weight of 240.38 g/mol.

Structurally, 2,6-Di-tert-butylnaphthalene (C18H24) contains a polycyclic aromatic system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 7.0, corresponding to approximately 7 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 240.38 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
