Description:

5,6,7,8-Tetrahydro-1,4-naphthalenediol, with the CAS number 13623-10-4, is an organic compound characterized by its bicyclic structure, which consists of a naphthalene core that has undergone partial hydrogenation. This results in the presence of two hydroxyl (-OH) groups at the 1 and 4 positions of the naphthalene ring system. The compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow solid at room temperature and is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether, but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic naphthalene framework. It exhibits properties typical of diols, including the ability to participate in hydrogen bonding, which can influence its reactivity and interactions with other molecules. 5,6,7,8-Tetrahydro-1,4-naphthalenediol may be of interest in various chemical applications, including organic synthesis and as a potential intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals or other fine chemicals.
