Davies and Warren" found that when 1,4-dimethylnaphthalene was treated with nitric acid in acetic anhydride, and the mixture was quenched after 34 hr, a pale yellow solid with an ultraviolet spectrum similar to that of a-nitro-naphthalene was produced. However, if the mixture was allowed to stand for 5 days, the product was i-methyl-4 nitromethylnaphthalene, in agreement with earlier findings. Davies and Warren suggested that the intermediate was 1,4-dimethyl-5 nitronaphthalene, which underwent acid catalysed rearrangement to the final product. Robinson pointed out that this is improbable, and suggested an alternative structure (iv) for the intermediate, together with a scheme for its formation from an adduct (ill) (analogous to l above) and its subsequent decomposition to the observed product. 

Davies and Warren have investigated the nitration of naphthalene, ace-naphthene and eight dimethylnaphthalenes in acetic anhydride at o °C. Rates relative to naphthalene were determined by the competition method, and the nitro-isomers formed were separated by chromatographic and identified by spectrophotometric means. The results, which are summarised in the table, were discussed in terms of various steric effects, and the applicability of the additivity rule was examined. For the latter purpose use was made of the data of Alcorn and Wells (table 10.2) relating to the nitration of monomethyl-naphthalenes at 25 °C. The additivity rule was found to have only limited utility, and it was suggested that the discrepancies might be due in part to the...

Fluoronaphthalene [321-38-0] is prepared from 1-naphthylamine by the Balz-Schiemaim reaction in 52% yield or by diazotization in anhydrous hydrogen fluoride in 82% yield. Electrophilic substitution occurs at the 4-position, eg, nitration with fuming nitric acid in acetic acid gave 88% yield of l-fluoro-4-nitro-naphthalene [341 -92-4]. 

Naphthalene-1,8-dicarboxylic add, its nitro-substituted derivatives, and naphthalene-1,4,5,8 tetracarboxylic acid, on treatment with sulfur tetrafluoride at 0 C, undergo dehydration to form quantitatively the corresponding anhydrides [218, 221] Unsubstituted and mononitrated monoanhydndes react further at 200-250 °C to give derivatives of 1,1,3,3-tetrafluoro-l// naphtho[I,8 c,d]pyran Dinitronaphthalene-l,8-di-carboxyhc acid anhydndes and naphthalene 1,4,5,8 tetracarboxylic acid dianhydnde give the respective tetra- and octafluoroethers only in the presence of an excess of anhydrous hydrogen fluoride [221] (equabons 113 and 114)... 

This leaction is lesorted to for the reason that naphthalene forms only the n-nitro-compound with niti icacid. The method, similar to that used for prepaiing aniline from nitiobenzene, cannot, therefore, be employed for the production of /3-n.tphtliyl-.amine. u-Naphthol is mainly used foi the manufacture of yellow and orange colours (Martins and naphthol yellow) by the action of nitric acid, and are similai m constitution to picric acid (see Prep. 107). 

Draw Lewis structures (or a series of Lewis structures) for the intermediate ions formed by addition of N02 to naphthalene at the 1 and 2 positions (nitro-naphthalenium ions ). On this basis, are you able to anticipate which intermediate is likely to be the more stable Examine the energies of 1-nitronaphthalenium and 2-nitronaphthalenium ions to see which ion is actually more stable. Which substitution product should be favored Is this the same product anticipated by inspection of naphthalene s HOMO Is it the observed product ... 

Several attempts to make this compound by pyrolysis of 2-azidO-3-nitro-naphthalene failed (ref. 35). 

To derive the maximum amount of information about intranuclear and intemuclear activation for nucleophilic substitution of bicyclo-aromatics, the kinetic studies on quinolines and isoquinolines are related herein to those on halo-1- and -2-nitro-naphthalenes, and data on polyazanaphthalenes are compared with those on poly-nitronaphthalenes. The reactivity rules thereby deduced are based on such limited data, however, that they should be regarded as tentative and subject to confirmation or modification on the basis of further experimental study. In many cases, only a single reaction has been investigated. From the data in Tables IX to XVI, one can derive certain conclusions about the effects of the nucleophile, leaving group, other substituents, solvent, and comparison temperature, all of which are summarized at the end of this section. 

The rate of amination and of alkoxylation increases 1.5-3-fold for a 10° rise in the temperature of reaction for naphthalenes (Table X, lines 1, 2, 7 and 8), quinolines, isoquinolines, l-halo-2-nitro-naphthalenes, and diazanaphthalenes. The relation of reactivity can vary or be reversed, depending on the temperature at which rates are mathematically or experimentally compared (cf. naphthalene discussion above and Section III,A, 1). For example, the rate ratio of piperidination of 4-chloroquinazoline to that of 1-chloroisoquino-line varies 100-fold over a relatively small temperature range 10 at 20°, and 10 at 100°. The ratio of rates of ethoxylation of 2-chloro-pyridine and 3-chloroisoquinoline is 9 at 140° and 180 at 20°. Comparison of 2-chloro-with 4-chloro-quinoline gives a ratio of 2.1 at 90° and 0.97 at 20° the ratio for 4-chloro-quinoline and -cinnoline is 3200 at 60° and 7300 at 20° and piperidination of 2-chloroquinoline vs. 1-chloroisoquinoline has a rate ratio of 1.0 at 110° and 1.7 at 20°. The change in the rate ratio with temperature will depend on the difference in the heats of activation of the two reactions (Section III,A,1). 

In a related study, the reaction of the enamine, l,2-dihydro-3-(2-methoxymethyl-l-pyrrolidin-yl)naphthalene [from 3,4-dihydro-2(l//)-naphthalenonc and (S)-2-(methoxymethyl)pyrrolidine] with 2-aryl-l-nitroethenes gave, after hydrolysis, an 83 17 to 95 5 mixture of the (3S,YR)- and (1/ ,1 T )-nitro ketones31.
