General description

2-Naphthol undergoes three-component one-pot condensation reaction with ureas/amides and aldehydes catalyzed by sulfamic acid under ultrasound irradiation to give 1-amidoalkyl-2-naphthols. Anodic oxidation of 2-naphthol in acidic media has been investigated at a synthetic boron-doped diamond thin film electrode using cyclic voltammetry and bulk electrolysis.

Application

<ul>
<li><strong>Transformation Reactions in Organic Chemistry:</strong> It is also involved in recent advances in the transformation reactions of Betti base derivatives during the synthesis of 1-(alpha;-aminobenzyl)-2-naphthol (Olyaei and Sadeghpour, 2024).</li>
