Chemical Structure

Naphthalen-1-yl 1-naphthoate CAS 94966-17-3 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Naphthalen-1-yl 1-naphthoate 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.

Naphthalen-1-yl 1-naphthoate (CAS 94966-17-3), molecular formula C21H14O2 and molecular weight 298.33 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Naphthalen-1-yl 1-naphthoate is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 298.33 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).

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.
