(2-Naphthyl)methanol

<p>2-Naphthalenemethanol is a chemical compound that belongs to the group of organic compounds. It is one of the simplest aromatic alcohols and has been used as a model for the study of other more complex molecules. 2-Naphthalenemethanol is synthesized by reacting sodium salts with borane-tetrahydrofuran complex in dry diethyl ether. The reaction mechanism involves the formation of an ester linkage between the two naphthalenes, which can then undergo hydrolysis to form an alcohol. 2-Naphthalenemethanol can be converted into its structural analog, naphthalene, via condensation reactions with formaldehyde or ethylene glycol. The chemical properties of 2-naphthalenemethanol have been studied using nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) and x-ray crystallography, which revealed that it exists as a zwitterion consisting of two covalently</p>
