CAS 1760-71-0
:4-Chloro-2-methyl-6-nitrophenol
Description:
4-Chloro-2-methyl-6-nitrophenol, with the CAS number 1760-71-0, is an organic compound that belongs to the class of chlorinated phenols. It features a phenolic structure with three substituents: a chlorine atom at the para position, a methyl group at the ortho position, and a nitro group at the meta position relative to the hydroxyl group. This compound is typically a solid at room temperature and is characterized by its yellow to orange color. It is known for its moderate solubility in organic solvents and limited solubility in water, which is common for many chlorinated phenols. The presence of the nitro group contributes to its potential as a reactive intermediate in organic synthesis and may impart biological activity, making it of interest in various fields, including pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. However, due to its chlorine and nitro substituents, it may also exhibit toxicity and environmental persistence, necessitating careful handling and disposal.

4-Chloro-2-methyl-6-nitrophenol
CAS:<p>4-Chloro-2-methyl-6-nitrophenol is an organic compound with the chemical formula C6H4ClNO2. It is a white solid that is soluble in water, alcohols and ether. It has uses as a pesticide and in the manufacture of dyes, pharmaceuticals, and herbicides. 4-Chloro-2-methyl-6-nitrophenol can be made by reacting phosphorus pentachloride with chlorophenols at temperatures below 100 °C. The reaction can also be activated by adding hydrochloric acid or absorbing electromagnetic radiation such as sunlight. The phototransformation of 4CMPNP to its photoproducts is dependent on irradiation wavelength. Irradiation of 4CMPNP with ultraviolet light leads to the formation of 3,5-dichloroaniline (3,5 DCA). The interaction between 4CMPNP and chlorine ions produces colorless monochlorob</p>Formula:C7H6ClNO3Purity:Min. 95%Molecular weight:187.58 g/mol
