2-Chloronaphthalene

2-Chloronaphthalene, serving as an intermediate in organic synthesis, is classified as a persistent organic pollutant. 2-Chloronaphthalene can induce apoptosis and autophagy, while inhibiting cell proliferation. 2-Chloronaphthalene leads to cell death through the interplay between autophagy and apoptosis[1][2].
