The aim of doing this research is a one-pot three-component synthesis of 1-aminoalkyl-2- naphthol and naphthoxazine derivatives using the condensation of β-naphthol with various aldehydes and amines in the presence of ionic liquid {[(secondary butyl) methyl] imidazolium bromide} {[sec-bmim]+ Br-, as an efficient catalyst and solvent. The catalyst was prepared according...

In this research, a Brønsted acidic ionic liquid namely N1,N1,N2,N2-tetramethyl-N1,N2-bis(sulfo)ethane-1,2-diaminium chloride {[TMBSED][Cl]2} was employed as a highly efficient catalyst for the solvent-free production of some nitrogen- and oxygen-containing heterocyclic compounds including: (i) polyhydroquinolines (from arylaldehydes, dimedone, β-ketoesters and ammonium acetate), (ii) 3,4-dihyd...

Fluorescence probes based on excited state proton transfer (ESPT) have been recently developed for microheterogeneous media. The ESPT behaviour of a series of substituted naphthols (4-chl oro-1-naphthol, 5-amino-1-naphthol , 4-methoxy1-naphthol, 7-methoxy-2-naphthol , 3-amino-2-naphthol, 6-bromo-2naphthol and 1-bromo-2-naphthol) is investigated in liposomes, using steady state and time resolved...

Hyaluronan is a biopolymer suitable as a targeting unit in drug delivery systems according to affinity of hyaluronan to CD-44 receptor of cancer cells. We suppose that hyaluronan, when interacts with cationic surfactant, influences hydration of Stern layer of CTAB which affects fluorescence properties of 1-naphthol. We study excited state proton transfer of 1-naphthol in aqueous solution and in...

The mechanism(s) of toxicity of 1-naphthol and two of its possible metabolites, 1,2- and 1,4-naphthoquinone, to freshly isolated rat hepatocytes has been studied. 1-Naphthol and both naphthoquinones exhibited a dose-dependent toxicity to hepatocytes. [1-14C]-1-Naphthol was metabolised by hepatocytes predominantly to its glucuronic acid and sulphate ester conjugates, but small amounts of covalen...

The effect of some unsubstituted aromatic amines and their oand p-hydroxylated derivatives on isolated rat-liver mito chondria has been studied. The o-hydroxylated amines inhibited oxygen uptake in the presence of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide-dependent respiratory substrates. Of the other compounds only l-amino-4-naphthol inhibited oxygen uptake. The Buccinate oxidase system was inhibited ...

cobalt hydrogensulfate is an efficient catalyst for the condensation of β-naphthol, aromatic aldehydes and 5,5-dimethyl-1,3-cyclohexanedione at 120 °c to afford 9,9-dimethyl-12-phenyl-8,10,11,12-tetrahydro-9-h-benzo[a]xanthen-11-one derivatives in high yields. also, polycondensation reactions of phenols with phthalic anhydride were carried out in the presence of cobalt hydrogensulphate under so...

Pseudomonas sp. strain C4 metabolizes carbaryl (1-naphthyl-N-methylcarbamate) as the sole source of carbon and energy via 1-naphthol, 1,2-dihydroxynaphthalene, and gentisate. 1-Naphthol-2-hydroxylase (1-NH) was purified 9.1-fold to homogeneity from Pseudomonas sp. strain C4. Gel filtration and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed that the enzyme is a homodimer with a...
