2,4-Dinitroanisole

Description:

2,4-Dinitroanisole (CAS 119-27-7) is an organic compound characterized by its nitro and methoxy functional groups. It is a yellow crystalline solid that is primarily used as an explosive and as a precursor in the synthesis of other chemical compounds. The presence of two nitro groups at the 2 and 4 positions of the aromatic ring enhances its explosive properties, making it more sensitive to heat and shock compared to other nitroaromatic compounds. The methoxy group at the 1-position contributes to its solubility in organic solvents. 2,4-Dinitroanisole exhibits moderate stability under normal conditions but can decompose under extreme conditions, releasing toxic gases. It is important to handle this compound with care due to its potential hazards, including toxicity and environmental impact. In terms of applications, it is utilized in military and industrial explosives, as well as in research settings for the development of new materials. Proper safety measures and regulations should be followed when working with this substance.
