2-Naphthoxyacetic acid (2-NOA) is an organic compound classified as a naphthoic acid and characterized by its colorless solid form. 2-Naphthoxyacetic acid displays solubility in water. This natural product can be found in various plants, including certain Nicotiana species, as well as in certain fungi. In scientific research, 2-Naphthoxyacetic acid serves as a tool for investigating the effects of auxins on plant development. It acts as a potent inhibitor of auxin-dependent plant growth, enabling the exploration of auxins′ impact on various aspects of plant growth and development. Additionally, by acting as an auxin antagonist, 2-Naphthoxyacetic acid binds to the auxin receptor, thereby impeding the binding of auxin to the receptor. Consequently, this inhibition disrupts the downstream signaling pathway of auxin, leading to the suppression of auxin-mediated plant growth and development.
