Scientific Background Information
Product Description
1,3-Dihydroxynaphthalene is a hydroxylated naphthalene derivative used as a versatile building block and intermediate in organic and analytical chemistry. The two phenolic hydroxyl groups provide useful chemical reactivity for the preparation of dyes, pigments and bioactive aromatic compounds. 1,3-Dihydroxynaphthalene is also employed in colorimetric and spectrophotometric assays due to its ability to form colored reaction products with specific analytes. Has been applied in forensic tests. Spectral Data: λmax=280-290 nm (solvent-dependent).
