Description

Beta-naphthylacetate is a chemical that is used in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and pesticides. It is an ester of naphthalene and acetic acid. Beta-naphthylacetate has been shown to inhibit the enzyme activity of hydrogen fluoride, which is used in the production of polyester fibers. Beta-naphthylacetate has also been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties by inhibiting prostaglandin synthesis. This chemical also has epoxidase activity, which makes it useful in the conversion of dl-alpha-tocopherol to vitamin E. Beta-naphthylacetate is soluble in water and can be made into solid dispersions or cationic surfactant solutions with high concentrations of beta-naphthylacetate, making it useful for tissue culture. The optimum pH for beta-naphthylacetate is between 7 and 8, while the optimum temperature range is between 25
