CAS 100-29-8: 4-nitrophenetole
Description:4-Nitrophenetole, with the CAS number 100-29-8, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of both a nitro group and a phenolic ether structure. It features a nitro group (-NO2) attached to the para position of a phenol ring, which is further substituted with an ethyl group. This compound typically appears as a yellow crystalline solid and is known for its moderate solubility in organic solvents, while being less soluble in water. 4-Nitrophenetole exhibits properties such as being a weak acid due to the phenolic hydroxyl group, and it can participate in various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitutions and electrophilic aromatic substitutions. Its nitro group contributes to its reactivity and potential applications in organic synthesis, as well as in the production of dyes and pharmaceuticals. Additionally, safety considerations are important, as nitro compounds can be hazardous, necessitating proper handling and storage protocols.
