Napthalene is a white solid hydrocarbon with a strong smell; is also called mothballs, moth flakes, white tar, and tarcamphor. Naphthalene is a natural component of fossil fuels such as petroleum and coal; it is also formed when natural products such as wood or tobacco are burned. The principal use for naphthalene is as an intermediate in the production of phthalic anhydride, which is used as an intermediate in the production of phthalate plasticisers, resins, phthaleins, dyes, pharmaceuticals, insect repellents, and other materials; other products made from naphthalene are moth repellents, in the form of mothballs or crystals, and toilet and diaper pail deodorant blocks. Naphthalene is also used for making leather tanning agents, and the insecticide carbaryl. There are two common compounds related to naphthalene: 1-methylnaphthalene (C11H10), also called alpha- methylnaphthalene; and 2-methylnaphthalene (C11H10), called beta-methylnaphthalene. Naphthalene evaporates easily; when its vapours are mixed with air, the mixture can burn
easily. It is soluble in benzene, alcohol, ether, and acetone; it is soluble in water at 20 degrees C. It is a moderate fire hazard when exposed to heat or flame; it reacts with oxidizing materials and chromiumanhydride. It is a moderate explosion hazard, in the form of dust, when exposed to heat or flame. Naphthalene is also known as naphthalin, naphthaline, tar camphor, white tar, NCI-C52904, albocarbon, and naphthene. Research Napthalene
