Product Information

• Name: Naphthalene-1-carbonyl naphthalene-1-carboxylate
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Naphthalene-1-carbonyl naphthalene-1-carboxylate is a benzoylation of a primary alcohol. It is a monosubstituted benzoyl derivative with a transition state that has a benzoic anhydride and enolate as reactants. It is not an alkylation reaction because the carbonyl group prevents the formation of an alkyl bond. The kinetic product, which is favored in this reaction, is the cyclic sulfate ester. The carboxylate group can be either chiral or non-chiral depending on the configuration of the starting material. The R/S system for naphthalene-1-carbonyl naphthalene-1-carboxylate would be S/R because it has no chiral atoms. Naphthalene-1-carbonyl naphthalene-1-carboxylate can also form chiral alcohol
