1-(4-Methoxynaphthalen-2-yl)ethan-1-one CAS 56046-72-1 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 1-(4-Methoxynaphthalen-2-yl)ethan-1-one.

1-(4-Methoxynaphthalen-2-yl)ethan-1-one (CAS 56046-72-1) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C13H12O2 and a molecular weight of 200.23 g/mol.

Structurally, 1-(4-Methoxynaphthalen-2-yl)ethan-1-one (C13H12O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 8.0, corresponding to approximately 8 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 200.23 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-(4-Methoxynaphthalen-2-yl)ethan-1-one 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.
