Ref. 3D-FN43612

Product Information

• Name: 1,4-Naphthalenedicarboxylic acid
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 1,4-Naphthalenedicarboxylic acid is a type of naphthalene compound that has photochemical properties. It can be synthesized in the laboratory by reacting 2-aminoterephthalic acid with nitric acid and heated to about 300 degrees Celsius. The resulting product is 1,4-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid. 1,4-Naphthalenedicarboxylic acid belongs to the class of carboxylates and contains two nitrogen atoms in its molecular structure. The Friedel-Crafts reaction is used to synthesize this compound from acetylsalicylic acid and nitrobenzene. This compound also has bioinorganic chemistry applications because it can be used as an electron donor for hydrogen bonding or electrochemical studies. 1,4-Naphthalenedicarboxylic acid is a tetranuclear molecule that has been studied using FTIR spectroscopy and electrochemical impedance spect
