2-Naphthol (β-Naphthol) (CAS: 135-19-3), a naphthol carrying a hydroxy group at position 2, slight phenolic odor. Darkens in air and on exposure to light. Long storage or light color in turn dark, can happen oxidation, reduction, nitrification and nitrosation reaction, and products, light and heat, halogenating role, etc.
2-Naphthol is used in the manufacture of dyes, perfumes, and medicinal organics, and in the production of antioxidants for synthetic rubber.
2-Naphthol is a hydroxyarene molecule, which when electronically excited forms strong acid. Excited 2OH dissociates only in water. It has a slight phenolic odor. It is incompatible with strong oxidizing agents, strong bases, acid chlorides and acid anhydrides. It is one of the most commonly used fluorescence dye.
2-Naphthol is a derivative of naphthalene, and is produced by the condensation of two molecules of malonic acid in the presence of a reducing agent such as sodium borohydride. 2-Naphthol is used as a pesticide and as a chemical intermediate in the production of other chemicals.
It is the raw materials of organic synthesis and dye intermediates; Used as tobias acid, butyric acid, and azo dyes; Used as rubber antioxidant, mineral flotation agents, germicides, fungicides, antiseptic, antioxidant, prevention and treatment of parasites, used in spices, leather tanning agents, textile auxiliaries etc.  

Although the toxicity of 2-Naphthol is of low order in test animals, ingestion of large amounts may result in nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, convulsions, and hemolytic anemia. Death may result from respiratory failure. The oral LD50 value in rats is in the range 2000 mg/kg. 2-Naphthol is slightly more toxic than 1-Naphthol [9015-3], the oral LD50 value of which is in the range 2500 mg/kg.
Skin contact can produce peeling of the skin and pigmentation.

Poison by ingestion, inhalation, and subcutaneous routes. Mutation data reported. A skin and eye irritant. Combustible when exposed to heat or flame. To fight fire, use CO2, dry chemical. Incompatible with antipyrine, camphor, phenol, ferric salts, menthol, potassium permanganate and other oxidzing materials, urethane.  

A potential danger to those involved in rubber antioxidant production, synthesis of dyes; leather processing; fungicides, pharmaceuticals, and perfumes. Used as an antioxidant for fats, oils; as an antiseptic; in insecticides.
