Abstract
A method for producing a 2-(halogenated methyl)naphthalene represented by general formula (1): where X is a halogen atom. The method includes a halogenation process of reacting 2-methylnaphthalene with a halogenating agent under light irradiation, in an organic solvent selected from a halogenated hydrocarbon, an aliphatic ester and an aliphatic hydrocarbon.
Claims7
A method for producing a 2-(halogenated methyl)naphthalene represented by general formula (1):
- wherein X is a halogen atom,
- wherein the method comprises a halogenation process of reacting 2-methylnaphthalene with a halogenating agent under light irradiation, in an organic solvent selected from a halogenated hydrocarbon, an aliphatic ester and an aliphatic hydrocarbon.
A method for producing 2-naphthylacetonitrile, comprising:
- a halogenation process of reacting 2-methylnaphthalene with a halogenating agent under light irradiation, in an organic solvent selected from a halogenated hydrocarbon, an aliphatic ester and an aliphatic hydrocarbon to produce a 2-(halogenated methyl)naphthalene represented by general formula (1):
- wherein X is a halogen atom;
- and
- a cyanation process of reacting the 2-(halogenated methyl)naphthalene obtained in the halogenation process
- with a cyanating agent, in a solvent.
