Polychlorinated naphthalenes in human milk: Health risk assessment to nursing infants and source analysis

Environment International, 2020
Polychlorinated naphthalenes are teratogenic environmental contaminants. Mother milk is the most important food for nursing infants. The World Health Organization actively promotes breastfeeding for its immunological, psychological, and economic ...

Chemical structure drives developmental toxicity of alkyl-substituted naphthalenes in zebrafish [PDF]

Environment International
Naphthalene and its alkyl-substituted derivatives are among the most abundant polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in environmental and human exposure studies, yet their developmental toxicity and mode of action remain poorly understood due to ...

Enantioselective aza-electrophilic dearomatization of naphthalene derivatives [PDF]

Nature Communications
The catalytic asymmetric dearomatization of naphthalenes is a pivotal strategy for generating enantioenriched three-dimensional aliphatic polycycles from flat aromatic precursors.

Photoinduced polarity-mismatched transformations of isoquinolines into naphthalenes [PDF]

Nature Communications
Isosteric replacement is an important strategy for lead optimization in drug-development paradigms. However, it is usually restricted to cost- and labor-intensive de novo syntheses.

Biomimetic Mn(III) porphyrin-catalyzed aromaticity-breaking epoxidation of electron-deficient naphthalene [PDF]

Nature Communications
Selective catalytic aromaticity-breaking epoxidation of arenes remains an ongoing research challenge, attributed to the stability of aromatic systems, the occurrence of over-oxidation, and the instability of epoxides.

Unveiling the Photodegradation Mechanism of Monochlorinated Naphthalenes under UV-C Irradiation: Affecting Factors Analysis, the Roles of Hydroxyl Radicals, and DFT Calculation [PDF]

Molecules
Polychlorinated naphthalenes (PCNs) are a new type of persistent organic pollutant (POP) characterized by persistence, bioaccumulation, dioxin-like toxicity, and long-range atmospheric transport. Focusing on one type of PCN, monochlorinated naphthalenes (

Global emissions of polychlorinated naphthalenes from 1912 to 2050 [PDF]

Nature Communications
Polychlorinated naphthalenes (PCNs) are persistent organic compounds that are regulated by the Stockholm Convention. Here, we estimate historical emissions from PCN production and use (1912-1987) and unintentional emissions from 20 categories (2000-2020).

Stereoselective [4+2] Cycloaddition of Singlet Oxygen to Naphthalenes Controlled by Carbohydrates

Molecules, 2021
Stereoselective reactions of singlet oxygen are of current interest. Since enantioselective photooxygenations have not been realized efficiently, auxiliary control is an attractive alternative.

Naphthalene

, 2021
\(\bf Objective\) This cross-sectional study determined whether acute sensory irritative or (sub)chronic inflammatory effects of the eyes, nose or respiratory tract are observed in employees who are exposed to naphthalene at the workplace. \(\bf Methods\) Thirtynine healthy and non-smoking male employees with either moderate (\(\it n\) = 22) or high (\(
