• Description: 1,1'-Methylenedi-2-naphthol is a hydroxylated aromatic compound that can be used as a precursor to other organic compounds. It can be synthesized from 1,1'-dihydroxybenzene by reaction with ammonium nitrate in the presence of an animal tissue and subsequent purification by extraction or distillation. The hydroxyl group on the ring makes this substance useful for analytical purposes because it allows for the detection of other substances using NMR spectroscopy. This substance has been shown to have a potential use as a pesticide due to its ability to bind to a variety of organisms, including invertebrates and plants. It also has the ability to cleave bonds in carbon sources, which may lead to uptake and metabolism within organisms such as bacteria.
