Chemical Structure

Naphthalene-2,3-dicarboxaldehyde CAS 7149-49-7 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Naphthalene-2,3-dicarboxaldehyde is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Naphthalene-2,3-dicarboxaldehyde (CAS 7149-49-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H8O2, MW 184.19 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Naphthalene-2,3-dicarboxaldehyde (C12H8O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Naphthalene-2,3-dicarboxaldehyde 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.
