Abstract
The action of concentrated HCl on 4,5-bis(diethylamino)-1-hydroxymethy lnaphthalene resulted in its cyclodimerization of the ''head-to-head'' type to form a spiro-compound, but, unlike its 4,5-bis(dimethylamino) -analog, cyclodimerization products did not occur on Al2O3 The transfo rmation of 4,5-bis(dimethylamino)-1-hydroxymethylnaphthalene on Al2O3 TiO2, and SiO2 afforded the previously unknown di[4,5-bis(dimethylamin o)naphthyl-4]methane, a spiro-compound of the ''head-to-tail'' type. 4 ,5-Bis(diethylamino)-1-hydraxymethylnaphthalene and 4,5-bis(diethylami no)naphthalene-1-carbaldehyde were synthesized.
