Chemical Structure

[(4-chloro-1-naphthyl)oxy]acetic acid CAS 835-08-5 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), [(4-chloro-1-naphthyl)oxy]acetic acid 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.

[(4-chloro-1-naphthyl)oxy]acetic acid (CAS 835-08-5), molecular formula C12H9ClO3 and molecular weight 236.65 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, [(4-chloro-1-naphthyl)oxy]acetic acid is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 236.65 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.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
