Chemical Structure

4-(Naphthalen-1-yl)butan-2-ol CAS 66920-78-3 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system, 4-(Naphthalen-1-yl)butan-2-ol is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 200.28 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

4-(Naphthalen-1-yl)butan-2-ol (CAS 66920-78-3), molecular formula C14H16O and molecular weight 200.28 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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), 4-(Naphthalen-1-yl)butan-2-ol 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.
