GENERAL DESCRIPTION & APPLICATIONS |
||
Naphthols are either of two crystalline monohydric alcohols, derived from
naphthalene and belong to the phenol family. There are position isomers;
alpha-naphthol (also called 1-naphthol) is 1-hydroxynaphthalene and
beta-naphthol (also called 2-naphthol) is 2-hydroxynaphthalene. The compound
1-naphthol is made by heating 1-naphthalenesulfonic acid with caustic alkali or
by heating 1-naphthylamine with water under pressure. The compound 2-naphthol is
manufactured by fusing 2-naphthalenesulfonic acid with caustic soda. The
different positions provide various chemical structures which offer important
roles to each characteristic colours. Naphthols are slightly soluble in water
but readily soluble in short alcohols, ethers chlorinated solvents, and caustic
alkalis. They are used directly in making several dyes and are converted into
numerous corresponding amines, esters, ethers and carboxylic derivatives as well
as into numerous sulfo- and nitro-group substituted (mono-, di- and tri) naphthol
compounds. They find extensive applications in making dyes, pigments,
fluorescent whiteners, tanning
agents, antioxidants, and antiseptics. Naphthol structure is found as a ligand
in transition-metal catalysts particularly in the form of
binaphthol (binol) which is composed of two naphthol rings connected at one
carbon site on each ring. Optically active binol is widely used in asymmetric
synthesis of rearrangements, epoxidations, reductions.
Sultone is an internal cyclic monoester (anhydride) derived from the hydroxyl and sulfonic radicals, with the formula -OSO2-.in a ring system. It is an analogous to lactone.
Sultam (a cyclic amide) is the nitrogen analog of sultone. Cyclic sulfur structure and analogues are important nucleuses in pharmacological activity and in printing textile materials. Sultone is used as a chemical intermediate to introduce cyclic sulfo groups into target molecules and to provide water affinity and anionic character. |
