1,4,6,7-Tetramethylnaphthalene

Description:
1,4,6,7-Tetramethylnaphthalene is an organic compound belonging to the naphthalene family, characterized by its polycyclic aromatic structure. It features four methyl groups attached to the naphthalene backbone, specifically at the 1, 4, 6, and 7 positions. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow solid at room temperature and has a relatively high melting point compared to many other hydrocarbons. It is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents such as benzene and toluene. 1,4,6,7-Tetramethylnaphthalene is known for its stability and resistance to oxidation, making it useful in various chemical applications, including as a reference material in analytical chemistry. Its unique structure contributes to its distinct physical and chemical properties, such as its ability to undergo electrophilic substitution reactions. Additionally, it may exhibit fluorescence, which can be leveraged in certain analytical techniques. Safety data indicates that, like many aromatic compounds, it should be handled with care due to potential health hazards associated with inhalation or skin contact.
