Chemistry:Naphthoquinone
From HandWiki
Naphthoquinones constitute a class of organic compounds (quinones) structurally related to naphthalene. The 1,2- and 1,4-isomers are common but others exist:[1]
- 1,2-Naphthoquinone
- 1,4-Naphthoquinone[2]
- 2,6-Naphthoquinone ({{{2}}})
Use and occurrence
Many natural products feature naphthoquinones, especially the 1,4 isomer.[3]
Amine-substituted naphthoquiones, e.g. Artisil Blue GFL and Helindon Yellow R, were once used as dyes.[4] Some interest remains in this area.[5]
