Of a series of indanylthiocarbamates, to1 indate (2) had significant antifungal properties. It is prepared simply from 5-indanyl thionochloroformate (1) by reaction with N-methyl-m-toluidine. It presumably joins the fairly large family of organic compounds having sulfur divalently bound to carbon which are useful topical agents for dermatophytes. 

Thiophosgene (1.15 g, 0.01 mol) in chloroform (40 ml) was slowly treated at room temperature with sodium l,4-methano-l,2,3,4-tetrahydro-6-naphthoxide (1.82 g, 0.01 mol). After 30 minutes, N-methyl-m-toluidine (2.42 g, 0.02 mol) in chloroform (40 ml) was added dropwise to the solution so obtained at room temperature. The reaction mixture was stirred for 48 hours at room temperature and then refluxed for 2 hours. The solvent was evaporated, and the residue redissolved in water and extracted repeatedly with diethyl ether. The organic phase was dried (Na2S04) and evaporated to...

Other derivatives of 2-naphthol, less significant in terms of quantity, are the semi-synthetic penicillin nafcillin, and the antimycotic tolnaftate, which is produced from 2-naphthol, thiophosgene and N-methyl-m-toluidine Nippon Soda),...
