6-METHYL-2-NAPHTHOL

Description:

6-Methyl-2-naphthol, with the CAS number 17579-79-2, is an organic compound belonging to the naphthol family, which consists of a naphthalene ring substituted with a hydroxyl group and a methyl group. This compound is characterized by its aromatic structure, which contributes to its stability and reactivity. It typically appears as a solid at room temperature and is soluble in organic solvents, while exhibiting limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic naphthalene core. The presence of the hydroxyl group imparts some polar characteristics, allowing for hydrogen bonding. 6-Methyl-2-naphthol is often used in various applications, including as an intermediate in organic synthesis, in the production of dyes, and as a potential antioxidant in certain formulations. Its chemical properties include the ability to undergo electrophilic substitution reactions, making it a versatile compound in synthetic organic chemistry. 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.
