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.
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.
Naphthalene-2-sulfonic acid undergoes many reactions, some of which are or were of commercial interest. Fusion with sodium hydroxide followed by acidification gives 2-naphthol. It is an intermediate in the formation of 2,6-, 2,7- and 1,6-naphthalene disulfonic acids as well as 1,3,6-naphthalenetrisulfonic acid.
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.
Naphthenic acids are represented by a general formula C n H 2n-z O 2, where n indicates the carbon number and z specifies a homologous series. The z is equal to 0 for saturated, acyclic acids and increases to 2 in monocyclic naphthenic acids, to 4 in bicyclic naphthenic acids, to 6 in tricyclic acids, and to 8 in tetracyclic acids. [5]
1-Naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) is an organic compound with the formula C 10 H 7 CH 2 CO 2 H. This colorless solid is soluble in organic solvents. It features a carboxylmethyl group (CH 2 CO 2 H) linked to the "1-position" of naphthalene.
Sodium naphthalene, a salt containing the radical anion of naphthalene as the anion. In organic chemistry, a radical anion is a free radical species [1] that carries a negative charge. Radical anions are encountered in organic chemistry as reduced derivatives of polycyclic aromatic compounds, e.g. sodium naphthenide.
