Chemical Structure

3-Ethoxynaphthalene-2-carboxylic acid CAS 54245-36-2 chemical structure

Description

3-Ethoxynaphthalene-2-carboxylic acid (CAS 54245-36-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C13H12O3 and a molecular weight of 216.23 g/mol.

3-Ethoxynaphthalene-2-carboxylic acid (C13H12O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; 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).

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

CATO manufactures 3-Ethoxynaphthalene-2-carboxylic acid 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.
