Description:2-Methyl-1-nitronaphthalene is an intramolecular hydrogen transfer agent that inhibits the formation of fatty acids in a reaction catalyzed by β-oxidation. 2-Methyl-1-nitronaphthalene reacts with trimethylolpropane to form a nitrobenzyl alcohol, which can be analyzed using gas chromatography. The protonated form of the reactant is transferred from the hydrogen donor to the acceptor, which causes an electron to be transferred to oxygen, forming a hydroxyl radical. This radical then attacks the carbon atom adjacent to the double bond, breaking it and forming two new bonds. The final result is a molecule of 2-methylnaphthalene and one molecule of H2O. The analytical method for this reaction is gas chromatography with electron capture detection (GC/ECD).
