General description
Decahydronaphthalene, mixture of cis + trans is a bicyclic organic compound that can be used as an industrial solvent. It can be prepared by the complete catalytic hydrogenation of naphthalene or tetralin.
Application
Decahydronaphthalene, mixture of cis+ trans can be used as a solvent in the:
- Distannoxane-catalyzed synthesis of aliphatic polyesters via polycondensation.
- Intramolecular carbonyl-ene cyclocondensation of oxygenated o-phenylallylbenzaldehydes to synthesize substituted naphthalenes.

Spontaneous crystalline-to-amorphous phase transformation of organic or medicinal molecules in the presence of mesoporous materials has been observed, for which pathway was suggested to be via the vapor phase, that is, sublimation of the crystalline molecules followed by adsorption on

Naphthalene diimide (NDI) bolaamphiphilic molecules (1) self-assemble in water to form organic nanoparticles, which exhibit self-assembly induced preassociated excimer formation and hence an enhanced green fluorescence.

Decalins bearing two axial -NHCONHAr substituents and an ester-linked alkyl side chain have been synthesized and studied as anion receptors and transporters. The design relates to steroid-based "cholapods" but is more compact and less intrinsically lipophilic. Transport rates depend on
