Abstract

1. 2-Naphthyl vinyl ether was prepared and investigated. The conditions were found for its complete hydrolysis, and this reaction can be recommended for the quantitative determination of the concentration of 2-naphthyl vinyl ether. 2. Some derivatives of 2-naphthyl vinyl ether were synthesized and characterized. These included 1-chloroethyl 2-naphthyl ether, and it was shown that this substance can be titrated quantitatively as HC1 by various methods. 3. A study was made of the decomposition of 1-chloroethyl 2-naphthyl ether under various conditions. It was shown that elimination of HC1 with dry ammonia is accompanied by the formation of a product corresponding in composition to the dimer of 2-naphthyl vinyl ether. In alcoholic media this reaction leads to the isolation. of 14-methyl-14H-dibenzo [a, j xanthene and acetaldehyde dialkyl acetal, which proves that mixed alkyl naphthyl acetals are formed in the first stage of reaction. Probable reaction schemes are proposed.
