Description

Tetrahydro-1-naphthoic acid is a toxic chemical that is used in the synthesis of various organic compounds. It is an organic acid that has a pungent odor and can cause irritation of the nose and throat. When heated, it evolves toxic fumes of hydrogen chloride gas and phosgene. Tetrahydro-1-naphthoic acid reacts with metal hydroxides to form metal tetrahydro-1-naphthoates, which have useful properties as catalysts in organic reactions. Tetrahydro-1-naphthoic acid has been used as a growth regulator in plants and animals. It binds to DNA at the C-H site, preventing protein synthesis and cell division by inhibiting RNA synthesis.
