2-Naphthoxyacetic acid is Gray crystals
| [Uses]
2-Naphthoxyacetic acid has been used as a component for embryo cell suspension maintenance medium. It has been used as a medium component for inducing somatic embryogenesis in grapevine. | [Uses]
2-Naphthoxyacetic Acid is a derivative of Naphthalene (N345600) and considered to be a phytohormone belonging to the class of auxins. | [Uses]
2-Naphthoxyacetic acid is a phytohormone used as a plant growth regulator on tomatoes and strawberries.
| [Definition]
ChEBI: 2-naphthyloxyacetic acid is a naphthyloxyacetic acid. | [General Description]
2-Naphthoxyacetic acid is a plant growth hormone having structure related to auxin and is majorly used to regulate growth of tomatoes, apple and grapes. | [Biochem/physiol Actions]
2-Naphthoxyacetic acid promotes seed germination and early flowering in tomatoes. 2-naphthoxyacetic acid effectively improves fruit size and color. However, it is also regarded slightly hazardous and may contribute to mutagenesis. | [storage]
Store at -20°C | [Purification Methods]
Crystallise the acid from hot water or *benzene. [Beilstein 6 IV 4274.] |
