General description
The asymmetric unit of the crystal of methyl 1-hydroxy-2-naphthoate contains two independent planar molecules that exhibit intraÂmolecular hydrogen bonds. Methyl 1-hydroxy-2-naphthoate can be prepared from 1-hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid, via esterification.
Application
Methyl 1-hydroxy-2-naphthoate may be used as a starting reagent for the synthesis of axially chiral benzimidazole derivatives.
It may also be employed in the synthesis of the following aza-mollugin derivatives:
- azamollugin
- 2-desmethyl-azamollugin
- 2,2-didesmethyl-azamollugin
