Research Summary
Naphthalene is an organic compound with the chemical formula C₁₀H₈, consisting of two fused benzene rings. It is best known as the primary ingredient in traditional mothballs and has a characteristic strong, mothball-like odor. Naphthalene is produced from coal tar and petroleum and is used in various industrial applications, including the manufacture of phthalic anhydride, which is a precursor for plastics, dyes, and synthetic fibers. Additionally, naphthalene is employed as a solvent, in the synthesis of other organic compounds, and in pest control due to its insect repellent properties. Its volatility and ability to sublimate directly from solid to gas make it effective in these applications. However, naphthalene is also toxic and potentially carcinogenic, necessitating careful handling and usage to minimize health and environmental risks.
