Description

β-Naphthoic acid ethyl ester (BNAE) is a synthetic compound that has been used as an intermediate in the synthesis of organic compounds. It is also used to prepare hydroxamic acids, which are active methylene compounds. BNAE reacts with nucleophiles and is susceptible to nucleophilic attack. The reaction mechanism for this type of compound involves a cavity with a constant volume, which increases the reactivity of the molecule. This type of reaction can be explained using the functional theory and the use of organic solvents. BNAE is stable when exposed to carbon tetrachloride and hydroxamic acids, but not when exposed to diethyl succinate or chemical agents such as sodium nitrite.
