Naphthol By Vaidy Enterprises

We offer naphthols that are used in the fabrication of dyes and additional organic synthesis. Our naphthols are easily soluble in ethers, alcohols and chloroform. Some of the chemical specifications of napthols are as follows:

Naphthol, or hydroxynaphthalene or naphthalenol, is either of two colorless crystalline solids with the formula C10H7OH. They are positional isomers opposing by the location of the hydroxyl group on naphthalene. Naphthol is naphthalen-1-ol, and B-naphthol is naphthalen-2-ol. Naphthol is the naphthalene homologue of phenol, with the hydroxyl group being more reactive than in the phenols.
