1,2-dihydroxynaphthalene dioxygenase (, 1,2-DHN dioxygenase, DHNDO, 1,2-dihydroxynaphthalene oxygenase, 1,2-dihydroxynaphthalene:oxygen oxidoreductase) is an enzyme with systematic name naphthalene-1,2-diol:oxygen oxidoreductase. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

: naphthalene-1,2-diol + O2 \rightleftharpoons 2-hydroxy-2H-chromene-2-carboxylate

This enzyme is involved in naphthalene degradation.
