Properties and stability

1. Found in burley tobacco leaves and oriental tobacco leaves.

Storage method

This product should be sealed and stored in a cool place. Packed in outer woven bag and inner plastic bag, 25kg per barrel.

Synthesis method

1. Obtained from the reaction of 2-naphthol and methanol. Heat 2-naphthol, methanol and sulfuric acid to reflux at 85-90°C for 6 hours, cool, filter, and wash until neutral. Distill under reduced pressure, collect the 168-180°C (2.67kPa) fraction, and recrystallize from methanol to obtain the finished product, with a yield of about 70%.

2. From 2-naphthol Obtained by reaction with dimethyl sulfate. Put water, sodium hydroxide solution and 2-naphthol into the reaction pot, add dimethyl sulfate at 10°C, and control the temperature of the material liquid not to exceed 36°C. Stir and react for 3 hours, then heat to 76-80°C for 1.5 hours. Cool to about 50°C, add ammonia water until the pH value is 11, cool, crystallize, and filter to obtain crude product. Recrystallize from ethanol to obtain 2-methoxynaphthalene fine product. 2-Methoxynaphthalene can also be purified by sublimation, while its similar product 2-ethoxynaphthalene (nerolidin) does not sublime when heated and is generally refined by vacuum distillation.

3. Obtained from petroleum ether Flakes and fronds are obtained from ether.

Purpose

Used in daily fragrance formulations. Mainly used in soap box synthetic detergent fragrance formula, the dosage is within 10%.
