Uses
Naphthalene-1-boronic acid can be used:
Methyl 5-bromo-2-(naphthalene-1-yl)benzoate, which is a starting material for the preparation of 9-anthracene-spirobenzofluorene host materials.
A bifunctional polymer used for the hydrolysis of cellulose.
9-(Naphthalene-1-yl)anthracene, which is a key intermediate for the preparation of anthracene derived molecular glass having blue emission.
1-Naphthaleneboronic acid can also be as a substrate in fluorometric boronic acid based saccharide sensors based on the Suzuki homocoupling reactions.
