Description

2-acetylnaphthalene, also known as 2-naphthoylmethyl ketone, is an organic compound with the formula C12H10O. It is a pale yellow solid that is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and diethyl ether. The compound is synthesized through the Friedel-Crafts acylation of naphthalene with acetyl chloride. 2-acetylnaphthalene is a versatile building block in organic synthesis, particularly for the preparation of substituted naphthalenes and heterocyclic compounds. It has shown potential applications in the development of organic dyes and pigments. Its photophysical properties have been studied for its potential use in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). Research on this compound focuses on its synthesis, reactivity, and potential applications in materials science.'

clozapine
Clozapine: A tricylic dibenzodiazepine, classified as an atypical antipsychotic agent. It binds several types of central nervous system receptors, and displays a unique pharmacological profile. Clozapine is a serotonin antagonist, with strong binding to 5-HT 2A/2C receptor subtype. It also displays strong affinity to several dopaminergic receptors, but shows only weak antagonism at the dopamine D2 receptor, a receptor commonly thought to modulate neuroleptic activity. Agranulocytosis is a major adverse effect associated with administration of this agent.. clozapine : A benzodiazepine that is 5H-dibenzo[b,e][1,4]diazepine substituted by a chloro group at position 8 and a 4-methylpiperazin-1-yl group at position 11.
