1-nitronaphthalene
Sign in to saveAlso known as alpha-nitronaphthalene, Nitrol
1-Nitronaphthalene is an organic compound with the formula . It is one of two isomers of nitronaphthalene. A pale yellow, sublimable solid, 1-nitronaphthalene is the main product of the direct nitration of naphthalene. It is an intermediate in the production of naphthylamine, a precursor to dyes. The conversion to the amine is effected by hydrogenation.
