The chlorinated naphthalenes in which one or
more hydrogen atoms have been replaced by chlorine to
form wax-like substances, beginning with monochloronaphthalene and going on to the octachlor derivatives.
Their physical states vary from mobile liquids to waxysolids depending on the degree of chlorination; freezing/
melting points of the pure compounds range from 17C
for 1-chloronaphthalene to 198C for 1,2,3,4-
tetrachloronaphthalene.

| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [General Description]
Clear colorless to amber oily viscous liquid. | [Reactivity Profile]
1-CHLORONAPHTHALENE(90-13-1) is incompatible with strong oxidizing agents. | [Air & Water Reactions]
Insoluble in water. | [Potential Exposure]
Industrial exposure from individual
chlorinated naphthalenes is rarely encountered; rather it
usually occurs from mixtures of two or more Chlorinated
naphthalenes. Due to their stability, thermoplasticity, and
nonflammability, these compounds enjoy wide industrial
application. These compounds are used in the production of
electric condensers; in the insulation of electric cables and
wires; as additives to extreme pressure lubricants; as supports for storage batteries; and as a coating in foundry use.
octachloro-: Used as a fireproof and waterproof additive
and lubricant additive. Pentachloro-: Used in electric wire
insulation and in additives to special lubricants. tetrachloro-: Used in electrical insulating materials and as an
additive in cutting oils. trichloro-: Used in lubricants and
in the manufacture of insulation for electrical wire.
Because of the possible potentiation of the toxicity of higher Chlorinated naphthalenes by ethanol and carbon tetrachloride, individuals who ingest enough alcohol to result in
liver dysfunction would be a special group at risk.
Individuals, e.g., analytical and synthetic chemists, mechanics and cleaners, who are routinely exposed to carbon tetrachloride or other hepatotoxic chemicals would also be at a
greater risk than a population without such exposure.
Individuals involved in the manufacture, utilization, or disposal of polychlorinated naphthalenes would be expected to
have higher levels of exposure than the general population. | [Fire Hazard]

High-temperature incineration
with flue gas scrubbing. Incineration, preferably after mixing with another combustible fuel. Care must be exercised
to assure complete combustion to prevent the formation of
phosgene. An acid scrubber is necessary to remove the halo
acids produced. | [Application]
1-Chloronaphthalene was used as solvent additive in the fabrication of fullerene based photovoltaic devices. It was used in preparation of polyvinyl chloride based membranes of 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-methoxyphenyl)porphyrinatocobalt(II) for arsenite determination. Also used in the synthesis of pharmaceutical compounds such as aryl chlorides. | [Synthesis Reference(s)]

1-Chloronaphthalene is obtained directly by chlorination of naphthalene, with the formation of more highly substituted derivatives such as dichloro- and trichloronaphthalenes in addition to the two monochlorinated isomeric compounds: 1-chloronaphthalene and 2-chloronaphthalene.
Reaction: Using zinc as catalyst, the ratio of naphthalene to chlorine is 1:0.84-1.17, the amount of catalyst is 0.4-0.5% of the weight of naphthalene, the chlorine passage time is 3-6h, the reaction temperature is 90-95℃, the average yield of 1-chloronaphthalene is 81.7%, After secondary fractionation, the product purity is 96%. The boiling point of 2-chloronaphthalene is similar to that of 1-chloronaphthalene, the chemical properties are similar, and it is difficult to separate. | [storage]
Color Code—Green: General storage may be used.Store in a refrigerator or a cool, dry place. | [Purification Methods]
Wash the naphthalene with dilute NaHCO3, then dry it with Na2SO4 and fractionally distil it in vacuo. Alternatively, before distillation, it is passed through a column of activated alumina, or dried with CaCl2, then distilled from sodium. It can be further purified by fractional crystallisation by partial freezing or by crystallisation of its picrate to constant melting point (m 132-133o) from EtOH, and recovering it from the picrate. [Beilstein 5 H 541, 5 III 1570, 5 IV 1658.] | [Degradation]
As early as 1955, Walker and Wiltshire observed that 1-chloronaphthalene could be biodegraded. They obtained from soil samples two unidentified bacterial cultures which were able to use 1-chloronaphthalene as the sole source of carbon and energy. When grown on 1-chloronaphthalene the metabolites 8-chloro-1,2-dihydro-1,2-dihydroxynaphthalene and 3-chlorosalicylic acid were formed. The latter was proposed to be degraded to 3-chlorocatechol, which was further mineralized to carbon dioxide via the oltho-cleavage pathway. In another study, 7-chloro- 1,2-dihydro-1,2-dihydroxynaphthalene was produced during the bacterial degradation of 2-chloronaphthalene (Callahan et al . , 1979; Canonica et al., 1957).
Growth on both monochloronaphthalenes (each 1 mg/l) by a mixed bacterial culture was also observed by Okey and Bogan (1965). They found that 2-chloronaphthalene was metabolized faster than 1-chloronaphthalene. The results indicated that the mechanism of monochloronaphthalene degradation is similar to what is observed for naphthalene, and 1- and 2-methylnaphthalene (Mahajan et al., 1994).
Morris and Barnsley (1982) studied the cometabolic conversion of 2-chloronaphthalene in more detail. They obtained Pseudomonas strains which cometabolized both monochloronaphthalenes when grown on naphthalene and suggested that 2-monochloronaphthalene was metabolized to the intermediates 4-chlorosalicylic acid and 4-chlorocatechol. The latter intermediate was meta cleaved to 5-chloro-2-hydroxymuconic semialdehyde which was slowly metabolized further. This rate-limiting step probably prohibited growth on 2-chloronaphthalene. |
