1,2-dihydroxynaphthalene dioxygenase (EC 1.13.11.56, 1,2-DHN dioxygenase, DHNDO, 1,2-dihydroxynaphthalene oxygenase, 1,2-dihydroxynaphthalene:oxygen oxidoreductase) is an enzyme with systematic name naphthalene-1,2-diol:oxygen oxidoreductase.[1][2][3] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

naphthalene-1,2-diol + O2 [math]\displaystyle{ \rightleftharpoons }[/math] 2-hydroxy-2H-chromene-2-carboxylate

This enzyme is involved in naphthalene degradation.
