Application

6-Methoxy-2-naphthaldehyde may be used in the preparation of the following 4-(6-methoxy-2-naphthyl)butan-2-one related compounds:
  • 4-(6-methoxy-2-naphthyl)but-3-en-2-one
  • 4-(6-methoxy-2-naphthyl)-3-methylbutan-2-one
  • 5-(6-methoxy-2-naphthyl)pentan-3-one

It may also be used in the synthesis of the following chalcone derivatives:
  • (2E)-1-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-3-(6-methoxy-2-naphthyl)prop-2-en-1-one
  • (2E)-1-(2-chloropyridin-4-yl)-3-(6-methoxy-2-naphthyl)prop-2-en-1-one
  • (2E)-3-(6-methoxy-2-naphthyl)-1-pyridin-4-ylprop-2-en-1-one
  • (2E)-1-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-3-(6-methoxy-2-naphthyl)prop-2-en-1-one

General description

6-Methoxy-2-naphthaldehyde can be prepared by reacting 2-bromo 6-methoxy naphthalene with triethylorthoformate via Grignard reaction. Its crystals belong to the orthorhombic space group, P212121 and shows excellent NLO (non-linear optical) property.

Two highly fluorogenic aldehydes, 7-methoxy-1-naphthaldehyde (MONAL-71) and 6-methoxy-2-naphthaldehyde (MONAL-62), were examined as indicators of the aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) activity in human tissue homogenates and accessible body fluids. Both compounds were previously found to be excellent substrates for the ALDH from
