:ethyl 2-(2-nitrophenoxy)propanoate
Description:
Ethyl 2-(2-nitrophenoxy)propanoate is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group, which is derived from the reaction of ethyl alcohol and a carboxylic acid. This compound features a propanoate backbone with a nitrophenoxy substituent, contributing to its unique chemical properties. It typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive aromatic odor. The presence of the nitro group enhances its reactivity, making it a potential candidate for various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitutions and electrophilic aromatic substitutions. Ethyl 2-(2-nitrophenoxy)propanoate is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic characteristics. It is important to handle this compound with care, as nitro compounds can be hazardous and may pose environmental risks. Its applications may include use in organic synthesis, as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals, or in agrochemicals. Always refer to safety data sheets and regulatory guidelines when working with such substances.
