Description

2-naphthyl sulfate is a sulfate ester of 2-naphthol. It is a metabolite of naphthalene, a common environmental pollutant. 2-naphthyl sulfate is formed in the liver by the action of sulfotransferases. It is then excreted in the urine. 2-naphthyl sulfate has been shown to be a substrate for the enzyme sulfatases, which are involved in the detoxification of xenobiotics. 2-naphthyl sulfate has also been shown to be a weak mutagen in some studies. 2-naphthyl sulfate is studied because it is a common metabolite of naphthalene, and because it has been shown to have some biological activity. It is also used as a marker of exposure to naphthalene.'
