Chemical Structure

2-(Chloromethoxy)naphthalene CAS 83767-84-4 chemical structure

Description

2-(Chloromethoxy)naphthalene (CAS 83767-84-4), molecular formula C11H9ClO and molecular weight 192.64 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C11H9ClO, 2-(Chloromethoxy)naphthalene contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 192.64 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.

CATO manufactures 2-(Chloromethoxy)naphthalene 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.
