CAS 16536-30-4: Bis(2,4-dinitrophenyl) Oxalate
Description:Bis(2,4-dinitrophenyl) oxalate, with the CAS number 16536-30-4, is a chemical compound known for its use as a reagent in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of various derivatives and as a nitrating agent. It is characterized by its molecular structure, which features two 2,4-dinitrophenyl groups attached to an oxalate moiety. This compound typically appears as a yellow crystalline solid and is notable for its high sensitivity and explosive potential, especially when subjected to heat or shock. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water. Due to its dinitrophenyl groups, it exhibits strong electron-withdrawing properties, which can influence its reactivity in chemical reactions. Safety precautions are essential when handling this substance, as it can pose risks of explosion and toxicity. Proper storage and handling protocols should be followed to mitigate these hazards, making it crucial for users to be aware of its properties and potential risks in laboratory settings.
