Chemical Structure

2-(6-Methoxynaphthalen-2-yl)butan-2-ol CAS 69338-03-0 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-(6-Methoxynaphthalen-2-yl)butan-2-ol is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2-(6-Methoxynaphthalen-2-yl)butan-2-ol (CAS 69338-03-0), molecular formula C15H18O2 and molecular weight 230.30 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 2-(6-Methoxynaphthalen-2-yl)butan-2-ol (C15H18O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 7.0, corresponding to approximately 7 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 230.30 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.

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.
