1-Nitroso-2-naphthol is an organic compound with the formula C₁₀H₆(NO)OH. It is one of several possible nitrosonaphthols, and the most studied for applications as an indicator and a dye. ^[2]

Synthesis and reactions

1-Nitroso-2-naphthol can be prepared by treatment of 2-naphthol with nitrous acid: ^[3]

C₁₀H₇OH + HNO₂ → C₁₀H₆(NO)OH + H₂O

Its conjugate base forms deeply colored complexes with iron(II) and cobalt(II), complexes [M(C₁₀H₆(NO)O)₃]^2-. ^[4] The deep colors of these complexes results from the delocalized bonding within each five-membered chelate ring. These species can be classified as nitroso complexes.
