8-Bromo-1-naphthalenecarboxylic acid is an organic compound characterized by its naphthalene backbone, which is substituted at the 8-position with a bromine atom and at the 1-position with a carboxylic acid functional group. This compound typically appears as a solid, often in crystalline form, and is known for its relatively high melting point. The presence of the bromine atom introduces notable electrophilic properties, making it useful in various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitutions and coupling reactions. The carboxylic acid group contributes to its acidity and solubility in polar solvents, while also allowing for potential derivatization. 8-Bromo-1-naphthalenecarboxylic acid is utilized in organic synthesis, particularly in the development of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, due to its ability to serve as a building block for more complex molecules. Additionally, its bromine substituent can facilitate further functionalization, expanding its utility in synthetic chemistry. Safety precautions should be observed when handling this compound, as with many brominated organic substances, due to potential toxicity and environmental concerns.

8-Bromo-1-naphthoic acid

8-Bromonaphthalene-1-carboxylic acid is an organic compound with the chemical formula C6H4BrO2. It is a white solid that is soluble in water, methanol, and ethanol. 8-Bromonaphthalene-1-carboxylic acid can be synthesized by hydrolysis of ethyl esters of naphthalene with alkali or sulphonation. The yields are usually low (25%). The product can also be made via the diazotization of naphthalenes in the presence of sodium azide to form naphthamide, which then reacts with bromine to form 8-bromonaphthalene-1-carboxylic acid. 8-Bromonaphthalene carboxylic acid has been used as a nucleophile in organic synthesis for conjugate addition reactions.
