Chemical Structure

methyl 6-methylnaphthalene-1-carboxylate CAS 91902-60-2 chemical structure

Description

methyl 6-methylnaphthalene-1-carboxylate (CAS 91902-60-2), molecular formula C13H22O2 and molecular weight 210.31 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, methyl 6-methylnaphthalene-1-carboxylate is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 210.31 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), methyl 6-methylnaphthalene-1-carboxylate 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.
