b-NAPHTHOL 99% (For Synthesis) (500 GM)

Product Description

2-Naphthol, or Î²-naphthol, is a fluorescent colorless (or occasionally yellow) crystalline solid with the formula C₁₀H₇OH. It is an isomer of 1-naphthol, differing by the location of the hydroxyl group on the naphthalene ring. The naphthols are naphthalene homologues of phenol, but more reactive. Both isomers are soluble in simple alcohols, ethers, and chloroform. 2-Naphthol is a widely used intermediate for the production of dyes and other compounds.
