2,6-Dimethoxynaphthalene

CAS: 5486-55-5

2,6-Dimethoxynaphthalene is a skeleton that belongs to the naphthalene class of compounds. It is a white crystalline solid that is soluble in organic solvents. This compound has been used as an intermediate for the synthesis of dyes and pharmaceuticals, but it is most commonly used as a precursor to reactive carboxylic acid derivatives. The sulfonation of 2,6-dimethoxynaphthalene with SO3 leads to the formation of ethyl diazoacetate and subsequent acylation reactions can be used to produce esters. The reaction mechanism for these reactions involves proton transport from the sulfur atom to the oxygen atom on ethyl diazoacetate. Supramolecular chemistry studies have shown that this reaction also takes place at low temperatures without the need for an acid catalyst.
