Alkaline hydrolysis of 1- and 2- naphthamide

Systematic work on the relative reactivities of naphthalene compounds has received little attention in the past. The neglect has arisen out of the importance of a wide variety of naphthalene compounds to industry, so that work has been directed mainly to methods of preparation. Of fundamental impor...
