1-萘硼酸可用于：5-溴-2-（萘-1-基）苯甲酸甲酯，其是制备9-蒽-螺苯并芴主体材料的原料。用于水解纤维素的双功能聚合物。9-(萘-1-基)蒽 ，其是制备发射蓝光的蒽衍生分子玻璃的关键中间体。它也可用作基于Suzuki 均偶联反应的荧光检测硼酸基糖类传感器的底物。 Naphthalene-1-boronic acid can be used:Methyl 5-bromo-2-(naphthalene-1-yl)benzoate, which is a starting material for the preparation of 9-anthracene-spirobenzofluorene host materials. A bifunctional polymer used for the hydrolysis of cellulose. 9-(Naphthalene-1-yl)anthracene, which is a key intermediate for the preparation of anthracene derived molecular glass having blue emission. It can also be as a substrate in fluorometric boronic acid based saccharide sensors based on the Suzuki homocoupling reactions.
