2-Naphthyl acetate is an ester substrate. Used to stain gels for detecting esterase activity. Used for the synthesis of diverse organic compounds, such as 2-naphthyl ketones, 2-naphthyl amines, and 2-naphthyl sulfonamides. It is also used in the development of analytical methods, including gas chromatography and high-performance liquid chromatography. 2-Naphthyl acetate is also used as a substrate to measure nonspecific esterase activity and β-esterase enzyme activity.
