Chemical Structure

Ethyl 4-Hydroxy-2-naphthoate CAS 91307-39-0 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Ethyl 4-Hydroxy-2-naphthoate.

CATO supplies Ethyl 4-Hydroxy-2-naphthoate (CAS 91307-39-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C13H12O3, MW 216.23 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, Ethyl 4-Hydroxy-2-naphthoate (C13H12O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 8.0, corresponding to approximately 8 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 216.23 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.
