In this video I show how to make naphthalene moth balls into the very useful chemical β-Naphthol or 2-naphthol, which is a very useful precursor that is critical in the manufacture of numerous synthetic dyes.
A slight modification of this process can be used to make 1-naphthol, which is used more often in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, most notably Zoloft.

Given that this is a longer and somewhat more complex video, it is very likely I made a few mistakes along the way. If you find any feel free to let me know!
Note: Procedure was taken from a sciencemadness forum post. I'll try to find the initial post to give proper credit. This one was a little much to rely exclusively on Wikipedia this time.
