2-Nitrobenzenepropanoic acid

Description:
2-Nitrobenzenepropanoic acid, with the CAS number 2001-32-3, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of both a nitro group and a carboxylic acid functional group. It features a benzene ring substituted with a nitro group at the second position and a propanoic acid chain at the para position. This compound typically appears as a crystalline solid and is soluble in organic solvents, though its solubility in water is limited due to the hydrophobic nature of the benzene ring. The nitro group contributes to its reactivity, making it a potential candidate for various chemical reactions, including electrophilic aromatic substitution. Additionally, the carboxylic acid group imparts acidic properties, allowing it to participate in acid-base reactions. 2-Nitrobenzenepropanoic acid may be used in synthetic organic chemistry and could serve as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. Safety precautions should be observed when handling this compound, as nitro compounds can be hazardous.
