Product Information

• Name: (S)-1,1'-Bi-2-Naphthol
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: The chemical structure of 1,1'-bi-2-naphthol is an alkanoic acid with a hydroxyl group. It has been shown to react in the presence of amines and sodium salts to form hydrogen bonding interactions. The x-ray crystal structures of magnesium salt and hydrogen bonding interactions were found to have a steric interaction with the fatty acids. The reaction mechanism for 1,1'-bi-2-naphthol is similar to that of other alkanoic acids: it reacts with a nucleophilic compound, such as water or ammonia, to produce an alcohol (hydroxyl group). When these reactions occur intramolecularly, the hydrogen bonds are formed between adjacent molecules.
