1,8-Naphthalic anhydride is an organic compound with the formula C10H6(C2O3). It is one of three isomers of naphthalic anhydride, the other two being the 1,2- and the 2,3-derivatives. The 1,8-isomer is prepared by aerobic oxidation of acenaphthene.10.1002/14356007.a13_227 Hydrocarbons 2000 Griesbaum Karl Behr Arno Biedenkapp Dieter Voges Heinz-Werner Garbe Dorothea Paetz Christian Collin Gerd Mayer Dieter Höke Hartmut 3527306730
Derivatives
Hydrolysis gives 1,8-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid. Heating that diacid induces isomerization to 2,6-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid.2,6-Naphthalenedicarboxylic acid Bernhard Raecke Hubert Schirp Org. Synth. 1960 40 71 10.15227/orgsyn.040.0071 free
1,8-Naphthalic anhydride is a precursor to the 4-chloro and 4,5-dichloro derivatives. These chloride groups are susceptible to displacement by amines and alkoxides,10.1080/00397918908050968 Improved Nucleophilic Displacements in N-Methyl Pyrrolidinone as a Solvent Synthetic Communications 19 1–2 179–188 1989 Tyman John Ghorbanian Shoreh Muir M.
