Chemical Structure

1-(2-Chloroethoxy)naphthalene CAS 51251-55-9 chemical structure

Description

1-(2-Chloroethoxy)naphthalene (C12H11ClO) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

1-(2-Chloroethoxy)naphthalene (CAS 51251-55-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H11ClO and a molecular weight of 206.67 g/mol.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-(2-Chloroethoxy)naphthalene 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.
