Chemical structure of 1,4-naphthoquinone. Naphthoquinones constitute a class of organic compounds structurally related to naphthalene. Two isomers are common for the parent naphthoquinones: 1,2-Naphthoquinone; 1,4-Naphthoquinone
1,4-Naphthoquinone or para-naphthoquinone is a quinone derived from naphthalene. It forms volatile yellow triclinic crystals and has a sharp odor similar to benzoquinone . It is almost insoluble in cold water, slightly soluble in petroleum ether , and more soluble in polar organic solvents.
1,2-Naphthoquinone or ortho-naphthoquinone is a polycyclic aromatic organic compound with formula C 10 H 6 O 2. This yellow solid is prepared by oxidation of 1-amino ...
Other important examples are 1,2-benzoquinone (ortho-quinone), 1,4-naphthoquinone and 9,10-anthraquinone. The name is derived from that of quinic acid (with the suffix "-one" indicating a ketone), since it is one of the compounds obtained upon oxidation of quinic acid. [ 4 ]
Other hydroxy- compounds can be derived from other isomers of the latter, such as 1,2-naphthoquinone and 2,6-naphthoquinone. The IUPAC nomenclature uses dihydronaphthalenedione instead of "naphthoquinone", with the necessary prefixes to indicate the positions of the carbonyl oxygens (=O) — as in 5,8-dihydroxy-1a,8a-dihydronaphthalene-1,4 ...
Folin's reagent or sodium 1,2-naphthoquinone-4-sulfonate is a chemical reagent used as a derivatizing agent to measure levels of amines and amino acids. [1] The reagent reacts with them in alkaline solution to produce a fluorescent material that can be easily detected.
The unqualified term "dihydroxynaphthoquinone" usually means a derivative of 1,4-naphthoquinone. Other dihydroxy- compounds can be derived from the two other known isomers, 1,2-naphthoquinone ( ortho -) and 2,6-naphthoquinone ( amphi -).
