Sodium naphthalene is an organic salt with the chemical formula Na + [C 10 H 8] −. In the research laboratory, it is used as a reductant in the synthesis of organic, organometallic, and inorganic chemistry. It is usually generated in situ. When isolated, it invariably crystallizes as a solvate with ligands bound to Na +. [1]
With alkali metals, naphthalene forms the dark blue-green radical anion salts such as sodium naphthalene, Na + C 10 H − 8. The naphthalene anions are strong reducing agents. Naphthalene can be hydrogenated under high pressure in the presence of metal catalysts to give 1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene(C 10 H 12), also known as tetralin.
Naphthalenesulfonates are derivatives of sulfonic acid which contain a naphthalene functional unit. A related family of compounds are the aminonaphthalenesulfonic acids.Of commercial importance are the alkylnaphthalene sulfonates, which are used as superplasticizers in concrete.
A practical synthesis involves the tin/HCl-reduction of the naphthalene-1-sulfonyl chloride. [1] 1-Naphthalenethiol can also be prepared from 1-bromonaphthalene by Pd-catalyzed reaction with the silylthiolate i Pr 3 SiSK followed by hydrolysis of the silathioether. [2] It was first prepared from the Grignard reagent generated from 1 ...

Aminonaphthalenesulfonic acids are compounds with the composition C 10 H 6 (NH 2)(SO 3 H), being derived from naphthalene (C 10 H 8) substituted by an amino and sulfonic acid groups. These compounds are colorless solids. They are useful precursors to dyes. [1]
Alkylated naphthalenes are chemical compounds made by the alkylation of naphthalene or its derivatives with an olefin. These compounds are used as synthetic base oils, and are claimed to have improved oxidative stability over some conventional base oils.
[5] [6] In one of the breakthrough events in the field of polymer science, Szwarc elucidated that electron transfer occurred from radical anion sodium naphthalene to styrene. The results in the formation of an organosodium species, which rapidly added styrene to form a "two – ended living polymer."
