METHYL 1-HYDROXY-2-NAPHTHOATE Usage And Synthesis

Uses

Methyl 1-hydroxy-2-naphthoate may be used as a starting reagent for the synthesis of axially chiral benzimidazole derivatives.
It may also be employed in the synthesis of the following aza-mollugin derivatives:

• azamollugin
• 2-desmethyl-azamollugin
• 2,2-didesmethyl-azamollugin

General Description

The asymmetric unit of the crystal of methyl 1-hydroxy-2-naphthoate contains two independent planar molecules that exhibit intra-molecular hydrogen bonds. Methyl 1-hydroxy-2-naphthoate can be prepared from 1-hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid, via esterification.
