(E)-3-(Naphth-1-yl)acrylic acid

(E)-3-(Naphthalen-1-yl)acrylic acid is an organic compound that belongs to the class of cinnamic acids derivatives. It is a white crystalline solid that has a melting point of 124 degrees Celsius. This molecule can be hydrolyzed in alkaline solution and is soluble in water. (E)-3-(Naphthalen-1-yl)acrylic acid has been shown to have antimicrobial properties, which may be due to its ability to inhibit propiolic acid synthesis by nitrite. The functional theory suggests that this molecule will react with a nucleophile on the target cell's surface and form an ion pair, which leads to an increased permeability of the cell membrane and the release of cytoplasmic contents.
