The preparation of 2-nitro-1-naphthoic acid, and the alkaline hydrolysis of ethyl 2-nitro-1-naphthoate and ethyl 8-nitro-1-naphthoate in ethanol-water

Possible methods of the preparation of 2-nitro-1-nephthoic acid, a derivative of naphthalene which has not previously been synthesised, have been reviewed and it has been prepared from 2-nitro-1-methylnaphthalene. A mechanism has been proposed for the condensation of aromatic nitromethyl compounds w...
