1,8-Dimethylnaphthalene

Description:
1,8-Dimethylnaphthalene is an organic compound belonging to the naphthalene family, characterized by its two fused aromatic rings. It has the molecular formula C12H10 and features two methyl groups attached to the naphthalene structure at the 1 and 8 positions. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on temperature, and exhibits a characteristic aromatic odor. It is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether. 1,8-Dimethylnaphthalene is primarily used in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of various chemicals. Its physical properties include a relatively high melting and boiling point, indicative of its stable aromatic structure. Additionally, it may exhibit moderate toxicity and should be handled with care in laboratory settings. As with many polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, it is important to consider its environmental impact and potential health effects during use and disposal.
