"The Kirk-Othmer Encyclopedia of chemical technology gives three ways to synthesize ANTU:
...
3) Ammonium reacts with aminonaphthalene hydrochloride yielding alpha-naphthylthiourea and ammonium chloride."
That third method cannot possibly be right. Where would the thiourea group come from? Not a single one of these reagents even contain a sulfur atom! --

Nice catch. I repaired this problem by chopping out the third method and adding equations to the others. The recent major enlargement of the article appears to be a homework assignment, and the result is packed with info, not perfectly, but pretty good. Usually these students fall down on the hard core chem though. --
