The occurrence of 2-Chloro-1-(naphthalen-1-yl)ethan-1-one is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
2-Chloro-1-(naphthalen-1-yl)ethan-1-one (CAS 76469-33-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H9ClO and a molecular weight of 204.65 g/mol.
2-Chloro-1-(naphthalen-1-yl)ethan-1-one (C12H9ClO) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; 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.
The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
