1-Nitro-2-(2-propen-1-yl)benzene

Description:

1-Nitro-2-(2-propen-1-yl)benzene, also known as allyl-1-nitro-2-benzene, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a nitro group (-NO2) and an allyl group (-CH2-CH=CH2) attached to a benzene ring. This compound typically exhibits a yellow to light brown color and is likely to be a liquid at room temperature. Its structure suggests it may participate in electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions due to the electron-withdrawing nature of the nitro group, which can influence the reactivity of the aromatic ring. The presence of the allyl group can also provide sites for further chemical transformations, making it a potentially useful intermediate in organic synthesis. Additionally, the compound may have specific solubility characteristics, being more soluble in organic solvents than in water. Safety data should be consulted, as nitro compounds can be hazardous, and appropriate handling and storage conditions are essential to mitigate risks associated with their use.
