Naphthalenesulfonic Acid. The sulfonation of naphthalene with excess 96 wt % sulfuric acid at < 80°C gives > 85 wt % 1-naphthalenesulfonic acid (a-acid) the balance is mainly the 2-isomer (P-acid). An older German commercial process is based on the reaction of naphthalene with 96 wt % sulfuric acid at 20—50°C (13). The product can be used unpurifted to make dyestuff intermediates by nitration or can be sulfonated further. The sodium salt of 1-naphthalenesulfonic acid is required, for example, for the conversion of 1-naphthalenol (1-naphthol) by caustic fusion. In this case, the excess sulfuric acid first is separated by the addition of lime and is filtered to remove the insoluble calcium sulfate the filtrate is treated with sodium carbonate to precipitate calcium carbonate and leave the sodium l-naphthalenesulfonate/7J(9-/4-J7 in solution. The dry salt then is recovered, typically, by spray-drying the solution. 

Solochrome dark blue or calcon ( C.1.15705). This is sometimes referred to as eriochrome blue black RC it is in fact sodium l-(2-hydroxy-l-naphthylazo)-2-naphthol-4-sulphonate. The dyestuff has two ionisable phenolic hydrogen atoms the protons ionise stepwise with pK values of 7.4 and 13.5 respectively. An important application of the indicator is in the complexometric titration of calcium in the presence of magnesium this must be carried out at a pH of about 12.3 (obtained, for example, with a diethylamine buffer 5 mL for every 100 mL of solution) in order to avoid the interference of magnesium. Under these conditions magnesium is precipitated quantitatively as the hydroxide. The colour change is from pink to pure blue. 

In the context of their new synthetic route to arenediazo phenyl ethers (see Sec. 6.2), Tezuka et al. (1987 a, 1989) investigated the reaction products of phenyldi-azo 1-naphthyl ether (12.10) under various conditions. When an acetonitrile solution of the diazo ether 12.10 was kept standing at room temperature for one week in the dark, the 4- and 2-phenylazo-l-naphthol isomers (12.11 and 12.12) were formed in 48% (20%) and 9% (8%) yields respectively. In the presence of acid (aqueous HC1 or H2S04) or of various bases (aqueous NaOH, pyridine, aniline, or sodium acetate) the yields of the azo products are much lower, but higher proportions of biphenyl, 1-naphthol, and phenol are formed. The crosscoupling product l-phenylazo-2-naphthol was not detected when the reaction was carried out in the presence of 2-naphthol. As this mechanistic test reaction gave rather low yields of the two azo compounds 12.11 and 12.12 in the presence and absence of 2-naphthol,... 

Conant and Peterson123 made the first kinetic study of the coupling of diazonium ions with aromatics, and measured the rates of reaction of diazotised aniline and its 2-MeO, 4-Me, 4-Br and 4-S03H derivatives with the sodium salts of 4-hydroxybenzenesulphonic acid, 2-naphthol-3,6-disulphonic acid, 1-naphthol-3,8-disulphonic acid, and l-naphthol-4-sulphonic acid. The reaction was second-order, viz. 

Synthesis of DBA 3,4-dihydrodiol from DBA 3,4-dione via bro-mination and reduction of the 1,2-dibromo compound with sodium bo-rohydride has also been described (44). The DBA 3,4-dione was synthesized by Kundu from 5-bromo-2-nitro-l-naphthol in nine steps in 4.2% overall yield (45). More recently, reduction of DBA 3,4-dione with NaBH, in the presence of air has been reported to afford directly the 3,4-dihydrodiol (22). 

Dual-Spectrum Also called Workman. A thermographic copying process. A transparent film base, coated with 4-methoxy-l-naphthol and a photo-reducible dye such as erythrosine, receives the image, which is then transferred to a paper sensitized with sodium behenate. Invented in 1961 by W. R. Workman at the Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing Company, MN, and commercialized for office copying, but later superseded by various electrophotographic processes. 

Enzyme-Immunoassay. Fish tissue samples for testing were cut into uniform 3mm thick slices with parallel razor blades mounted on a handle. Four discs were then punched out from each slice with a stainless steel borer, 3-mm in diameter, and each disc was placed in a well of a 96-well polystyrene microtiter plate (Flow Laboratories, Inc., Hamden, CT). Samples were washed once with 0.2 ml Tris buffer. After the wash solution was aspirated, each sample was fixed in 0.2 ml of 0.3% H O -methanol fixative for 30 min. at room temperature. Samples were then transferred to clean wells and 0.2 ml of a 1 100 dilution of sheep-anti-ciguatoxin-horseradish peroxidase conjugate in Tris buffer was added to each well. The plate was then incubated at room temperature for 1 hr. The sheep-anti-cigua-toxin-horseradish peroxidase was removed by aspiration, and the tissues were immersed for 5 min. in 0.2 ml Tris buffer. Each sample was transferred to clean wells and incubated for 5 min. at room temperature with 0.2 ml of 4-chloro-l-naphthol substrate. The final steps involved removal of the tissue and addition of 0.015 ml of 3 M sodium hydroxide to stop the enzymatic reaction. Absorbance readings at 405 nm of each well were obtained in the Titertek Multi-skan (Flow Laboratories, Inc., Hamden, CT). 

Groups of Class 1, when present in the 2 position, direct partly to the 1 position (in direct relation to the strength of their orienting influence), and partly to positions in the other ring, especially the 8 position, then the 6 position. Sulfonation of j3-naphthylamine gives a mixture of all four heteronuclear monosulfonic acids. The 3 position is seldom entered, and then only if the other ring bears at least one substituent. The reaction of carbon dioxide with sodium j3-naphtholate is an exception to this rule. In this case 2-hydroxy-l-naphthoic acid is formed at lower temperatures, but at higher temperatures the product is 2-hydroxy-3-naphthoic acid. 

The nitrobenzene solution, together with the suspended solid material, is shaken with a mixture of 300 cc. water and 100 grams of ice, then twice with 100-cc. portions of cold water. The combined aqueous extracts are filtered through a moistened paper and then saturated with 200 grams of salt, whereupon sodium 2-naphthol-l-sulfonate is precipitated in colorless plates. Stirring is continued until all of the salt is dissolved, and the mixture is allowed to stand overnight, then filtered. The product is pressed out and washed twice with saturated salt solution. The filter cake is used directly for the preparation of 2-naphthyl-amine-l-sulfonic acid after tests have shown that it does not fluoresce in soda solution and does not yield a water soluble, orange red dye with diazotized aniline and thus does not contain isomeric naphtholsul-fonic acids. 

Various types of dyes are prepared from dehydrothiotoluidine. The free base or its sulfonic acid is diazotized and coupled with various naph-tholsulfonic acids such as, for example, e acid (l-naphthol-3,8-disul-fonic acid). The resulting dye is characterized by its high purity of color and can be discharged to a pure white. Such red direct dyes are sold under various names, and are usually referred to as dyes of the erika red type. (Erika Z is the combination from dehydxothioxylidine and e acid. l-Naphthol-3,6-disulfonic acid gives a very similar dye.) In addition to the true azo dyes from dehydrothiotoluidine, two other products are made which are important yellow dyes. One of these dyes is the naphthamine yellow NN (also called chloramine yellow) (Kalle), formed from dehydrothiotoluidinesulfonic acid by oxidation with sodium hypochlorite. The other is thiazole yellow or Clayton yellow, which is made by combining the diazo compound of dehydrothiotoluidinesulfonic acid with a second molecule of the same compound to form a diazoamino compound.

The introduction of amino groups into phenols and ethers can be accomplished by the formation and reductive cleavage of their azo compounds. The diazotizing agent may be prepared from sulfanilic acid, and the reduction can be performed with sodium hydrosulfite. Excellent examples are found in the synthesis of l-amino-2-naphthol (85%) and 4-amino-l-naphthol (75%). ... 

The other part of the diaminonaphthol dihydrochloride solution is treated with acetic anhydride and then sodium acetate the reaction in aqueous solution effects selective acetylation of the amino groups and affords 2,4-diacetylamino-l-naphthol (4). Oxidation of 4 by Fe " and oxygen from the air is attended with cleavage of the acetylamino group at the 4-...

The sodium salt of Schaffer s acid (14 1 grams), containing 2 mols. of water of crystallisation, is dissolved in 100 c.c. of hot water and a solution of 16 grams of mercuric acetate in 100 c.c. of hot water added. The compound soon separates out, and is only slightly soluble in water, but readily in dilute acetic acid or sodium hydroxide. It has similar properties to the derivative from l-naphthol-4-sulphonie acid.
