Documented Uses

• Used as a chemical reagent and intermediate; [Hawley] Used as a reagent for resorcinol and thalline; [Merck Index]
• Chemical reagent and intermediate
• Prepared by oxidation of 1-amino-2-naphthol with ferric chloride:...; by oxidation of naphthalene: Milas, US 2395638 (1946 to Research Corp.); by bacterial dissimilation of naphthalene:...; from tetrachloro-o-benzoquinone...
• 1,2-Naphthoquinone is metabolized to 1,2-dihydroxynaphthalene in pigs. /From Table/
• 1-Naphthol was metabolized by tyrosinase, polyphenol oxidase, primarily to 1,2-naphthoquinone and to small amounts of 1,4-naphthoquinone as well as to covalently bound products. The inhibition of covalent binding by ethylenediamine, which reacts specifically with 1,2-naphthoquinone but not 1,4-naphthoquinone, suggested that most of the covalent binding was due to 1,2-naphthoquinone or a metabolite of similar structure.
• In rat liver microsomal preparations, 1-naphthol is metabolized by the cytochrome p450 mixed function oxidase to 1,4-naphthoquinone and covalently bound species. The major binding species are derived from 1,4-naphthoquinone but not 1,2-naphthoquinone. 1-Naphthol is also metabolized by tyrosinase (monophenol monooxygenase; polyphenol oxidase) primarily to 1,2-naphthoquinone and covalently bound products; most of the covalent binding was derived from a 1,2-naphthoquinone derivative.
