4-Methoxy-1-naphthaldehyde was used in fluorometric enzymatic assay for determination of activity of class I and II alcohol dehydrogenase isoenzymes in human pancreas and in human liver homogenates. | [Biochem/physiol Actions]
4-Methoxy-1-naphthaldehyde is fluorogenic substrate for human alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH). | [Synthesis]
General method: A mixture of 4-hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde (1 eq.), potassium carbonate (K2CO3, 1.5 eq.) and iodomethane (1.5 eq.) in acetone (12 mL/mmol) was stirred under reflux conditions for 4 to 24 hours. The progress of the reaction was monitored by thin layer chromatography (TLC) until complete disappearance of the raw material. Upon completion of the reaction, the solvent was removed by evaporation under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography with an eluent ratio of cyclohexane/ethyl acetate (90:10 to 70:30). | [References]
