Naphthol AS-MX phosphate is a synthetic naphthol dye that is used in the diagnosis of infectious diseases, such as Klebsiella aerogenes. It binds to human serum albumin and can be visualized by light microscopy. Naphthol AS-MX phosphate acts as an immunological adjuvant and has been shown to stimulate antibody production and enhance the immune response. This drug also has antidiabetic properties, which may be due to its ability to increase adipose tissue lipolysis.

1,6-Dimethoxynaphthalene is a chiral molecule that can be used as a chemical intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals. 1,6-Dimethoxynaphthalene has been shown to react with dopamine to form β-unsaturated ketones. This reaction is catalyzed by thionyl chloride. The product of this reaction can be reacted with a chloride, naphthalene or sulfinyl chloride to form five-membered diprotonated products. 1,6-Dimethoxynaphthalene also reacts with hydrosulfite to form sulfinyl functional groups, which can then be used as additives in other chemical reactions.

2-Naphthoic acid is a chemical compound that belongs to the group of aromatic compounds. It can be found in many natural products, such as plants and animals. 2-Naphthoic acid has been shown to inhibit the activity of G protein-coupled receptors, which are involved in signal transduction. The crystal structure of 2-naphthoic acid is polymorphic and there are two possible structures: p1 and p2. Each form has different chemical properties, including reactivity with hydrogen bonds, which may lead to different biological effects.

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

1-Naphthalenesulfonic acid (1NS) is a sulfonated organic compound. It is an inhibitor of human serum albumin, with a high affinity for the hydroxyl group on the protein's surface. 1NS has been shown to have anti-cancer activity against malignant brain tumors in mice, and also inhibits HIV replication by inhibiting the function of the enzyme reverse transcriptase. 1NS has been shown to inhibit toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), which may be related to its immunomodulatory effects.

1-(3-Carboxypropionyl)naphthalene is a drug that belongs to the class of reactive drugs. It is a prodrug that is metabolized by cytochrome P450 enzymes to 1-(3-carboxypropionyl)naphthoquinone (1CPRNQ). Its main mechanism of action is through binding to magnesium, which induces cell membrane permeability and results in apoptosis. 1-(3-Carboxypropionyl)naphthalene has shown an antibody response to eye disorders and cardiovascular diseases, as well as anti-angiogenic properties. It also has been shown to inhibit the proliferation of tumor cells and induce leukocyte antigen expression.

Acenaphthylene is a natural compound that has anti-inflammatory activity. It has been shown to inhibit the growth of skin cancer cells and wild-type strains of Escherichia coli. Acenaphthylene is synthesized by thermal degradation of acenaphthene and can be found in wastewater. Acenaphthylene can be extracted from these samples using solid phase microextraction (SPME). Acenaphthene can also be used as an indicator for the presence of other compounds in a reaction solution or analytical method. Acenaphthylene reacts with hydrogen peroxide to form a fluorescent derivative, which can be detected using UV light. The injection solution used for this reaction is acetone, methanol, and distilled water.

5,6,7,8-Tetrahydro-1-naphthol is a natural compound that belongs to the group of diazonium compounds. It reacts with an alkanoic acid and a hydrochloric acid in the presence of a diazo compound to form an alkylating product. This product can be used as a precursor for the synthesis of other organic compounds. The reaction mechanism has been studied using rat liver microsomes. 5,6,7,8-Tetrahydro-1-naphthol can react with dopamine in human liver samples to form 1-hydroxyindole and phenylhydroxyl radicals (a reactive oxygen species). 5,6,7,8-Tetrahydro-1-naphthol also reacts with soybean lipoxygenase to produce an alkyl radical intermediate that can react with molecular oxygen to form peroxides.

The chemical structure of 1,1'-bi-2-naphthol is an alkanoic acid with a hydroxyl group. It has been shown to react in the presence of amines and sodium salts to form hydrogen bonding interactions. The x-ray crystal structures of magnesium salt and hydrogen bonding interactions were found to have a steric interaction with the fatty acids. The reaction mechanism for 1,1'-bi-2-naphthol is similar to that of other alkanoic acids: it reacts with a nucleophilic compound, such as water or ammonia, to produce an alcohol (hydroxyl group). When these reactions occur intramolecularly, the hydrogen bonds are formed between adjacent molecules.

2-Naphthalenesulfonic acid sodium is a chemical compound that belongs to the class of naphthalene sulfonic acids. It is used in the production of medicines and as an industrial chemical. 2-Naphthalenesulfonic acid sodium has been shown to inhibit the viscosity of blood capillaries and has been proposed for use in the treatment of diabetic retinopathy. This compound also reduces the permeability of cell membranes by binding to fatty acids, which has led it to be studied for its potential effects on prostate cancer. 2-Naphthalenesulfonic acid sodium has been shown to have a Michaelis–Menten kinetics with respect to the enzyme ft-ir spectroscopy and can be used as a reagent for cationic surfactants. 2-Naphthalenesulfonic acid sodium is soluble in water, but insoluble in hydrochloric acid or solvents such as chloroform or acetone.
