1-Naphthoic acid is an organic compound of the formula C10H7CO2H. It is one of two isomeric carboxylic acid derivatives of naphthalene, the other one being 2-naphthoic acid. 1-Naphthoic acid is a frequent substrate for C-H activation reactions.[1] In general the hydroxynaphthoic acids are far more useful than the parent. It can be prepared by carboxylation of the Grignard reagent generated from 1-Bromonaphthalene.[2]
