Molecular and crystal structure of 1,4-diacetoxynaphthalene: Structural analysis of methyl substituted 1,4-diacetoxynaphthalenes

Article abstract of DOI:10.1007/BF01194126

Methyl substituted 1,4-diacetoxynaphthalenes have been synthesized and analyzed by means of ultraviolet and 1H-nmr.Positional effects of the methyl substitution on the spectroscopic parameters have been rationalized. 6,7-Dimethyl-1,4-diacetoxynaphthalene, V, has been analyzed by X-ray diffraction techniques.Crystals are monoclinic P2₁, a = 8.816(1), b = 26.676(7), c = 6.189(1) Angstroem, β = 103.9(2) deg and four molecules in the unit cell.
