Octadecanoic acid, 2-naphthalenyl ester

Description:
Octadecanoic acid, 2-naphthalenyl ester, also known as stearic acid 2-naphthyl ester, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group formed from the reaction of octadecanoic acid (a long-chain saturated fatty acid) and 2-naphthol (a naphthalene derivative). This compound typically appears as a white to pale yellow solid or viscous liquid, depending on its purity and temperature. It is relatively hydrophobic due to the long hydrocarbon chain, which contributes to its low solubility in water but good solubility in organic solvents. The presence of the naphthyl group imparts unique aromatic properties, making it useful in various applications, including as a plasticizer, lubricant, or in the formulation of surfactants. Additionally, its thermal stability and compatibility with other organic compounds make it valuable in industrial processes. Safety data indicates that, like many esters, it should be handled with care to avoid skin and eye irritation. Overall, octadecanoic acid, 2-naphthalenyl ester is a versatile compound with applications in both chemical synthesis and material science.
