  • When picric acid reacts with naphthalene then naphthalene picrate is formed.
  • The title compound was synthesized by dissolving naphthalene (C10H8) and picric acid (PA) in benzene .
  • They were mixed separately, in the ratio of 1:1 and the resulting solution was  stirred well.
  • After stirring a yellow precipitate of naphthalene picrate (NP)  (C6H3N3O7·C10H8) crystalline substance was obtained.
  • The  purity of synthesized compound was improved by successive  recrystallization process.
