Naphthalene, 2-methoxy-3-methyl-

Description:
Naphthalene, 2-methoxy-3-methyl-, also known by its CAS number 61873-80-1, is an organic compound belonging to the class of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. It features a naphthalene backbone with a methoxy group (-OCH3) and a methyl group (-CH3) attached at the 2 and 3 positions, respectively. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow solid at room temperature and has a characteristic aromatic odor. It is moderately soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water. Naphthalene derivatives, including this compound, are known for their applications in various fields, including as intermediates in organic synthesis and in the production of dyes, fragrances, and pharmaceuticals. The presence of the methoxy and methyl groups can influence its reactivity and interaction with biological systems, making it of interest in both industrial and environmental chemistry. Safety considerations should be taken into account, as naphthalene and its derivatives can pose health risks upon exposure.
