Chemical Structure

2-(1,2,3,4-Tetrahydronaphthalen-1-yl)acetaldehyde CAS 74563-58-9 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 2-(1,2,3,4-Tetrahydronaphthalen-1-yl)acetaldehyde (C12H14O) is characterized by a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

CATO supplies 2-(1,2,3,4-Tetrahydronaphthalen-1-yl)acetaldehyde (CAS 74563-58-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H14O, MW 174.24 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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.

CATO manufactures 2-(1,2,3,4-Tetrahydronaphthalen-1-yl)acetaldehyde 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.
