1-(3-Hydroxy-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalen-2-yl)ethan-1-one CAS 40420-05-1 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures 1-(3-Hydroxy-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalen-2-yl)ethan-1-one under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.

1-(3-Hydroxy-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalen-2-yl)ethan-1-one (CAS 40420-05-1), molecular formula C12H14O2 and molecular weight 190.24 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 1-(3-Hydroxy-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalen-2-yl)ethan-1-one is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 190.24 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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