2-Naphthol, or β-naphthol, is a fluorescent colorless crystalline solid with the formula C10H7OH. It is an isomer of 1-naphthol, differing by the location of the hydroxyl group on the naphthalene ring. The naphthols are naphthalene homologues of phenol, but more reactive. Both isomers are soluble in simple alcohols, ethers and chloroform. 2-Naphthol is a widely used intermediate for the production of dyes and other compounds.
