Results Results obtained are summarized in Table I. As in the case of l-naphthol12 the reaction of 2-naphthol with methanol yields four types of products in the temperature range studied, ie., methyl naphthyl ethers (3, 4), methylated naphthols (almost entirely 5), methylated oxo compounds (6, 7), and methylnaphthalenes (8-17). The change in the relative yields of these types of products as a function of temperature and catalyst acidity ...
