White Crystal, relative density 1. 0640, melting point 37.5 ℃, boiling point 282 ℃, refractive index 1. 5932. Insoluble in water, soluble in alcohol, ether, chloroform, carbon disulfide, petroleum ether, toluene and other organic solvents.
prepared by etherification of 2-naphthol with ethanol in the presence of sulfuric acid. Add ethanol into the reaction kettle, add 2-naphthol to dissolve it, add concentrated sulfuric acid Dropwise, heat reflux lOh, add the reaction solution to 5% sodium hydroxide solution, and immediately precipitate off-white crystals, the filter cake was filtered with water to pH 7.5. The crude product is dried and refined by vacuum distillation, and the fraction of 138~140 ℃(1. 6kPa) is collected as the product.
It is used in medicine to produce sodium ethoxynaphthylpenicillin.

Use | used for soap of jasmine, orange flower, Gulong, etc. It can be used as a sweetening and perfuming agent, and is often used with methyl naphthalene methyl ketone, methyl anthranilate, orange leaf oil and the like. With linalool and its esters, terpineol and its esters, isobutyl phenylacetate, a small amount of undecylolactone and the like can be well coordinated and mixed. For example, the effect is better when it is used with a fragrance with a slightly higher boiling point such as amyl cinnamaldehyde. This product has the fragrance of orange flower and locust flower, accompanied by sweet taste and strawberry, pineapple-like aroma, commonly used as soap flavor (orange flower fragrance), cheap cosmetic flavor, strawberry flavor and other blended spices. It is used in medicine as a raw material for ethoxynaphthylpenicillin sodium. used for mixing detergent and soap flavor |
production method | results from the etherification of 2-naphthol with ethanol in the presence of sulfuric acid. The 2-naphthol was dissolved in anhydrous ethanol, concentrated sulfuric acid was added dropwise, and heated to reflux for 10H. The reaction solution was poured into 5% sodium hydroxide solution to precipitate off-white crystals, which were filtered, washed with cold water until pH = 7.5, and dried to obtain 2-ethoxynaphthalene. The yield was 96%. The crude product may be purified by distillation under reduced pressure, and a 138-140 ° C. (1.6kPa) fraction is collected. It can also be prepared by reacting diethyl sulfate or haloethane with the sodium salt of 2-naphthol. |
