8-(Phenylamino)-l-naphthalene-silver sulfonate 2 was prepared from the corresponding ammonium salt 1 and silver nitrate under ambient conditions in ethanol. From 2 salts with several other monovalent cations were obtained. All of them show similar fluorescence properties. Attempts to esterify the sulfonate group by means of alkylhalides were unsuccessful. Only after prolonged reaction times several decomposion products were detected in the TLC.

8-(Phenylamino)-l-naphthalene-silver sulfonate 2 is a stable, fluorescence-producing compound with potential applications in organic synthesis.
