:Oxirane, (3-nitrophenyl)-
Description:
Oxirane, (3-nitrophenyl)-, also known as 3-nitrophenyl oxirane, is a chemical compound characterized by the presence of an oxirane (epoxide) functional group attached to a 3-nitrophenyl moiety. The oxirane structure consists of a three-membered cyclic ether, which is highly reactive due to the strain in the ring. This compound typically exhibits properties associated with both aromatic and epoxide functionalities, including potential reactivity towards nucleophiles and electrophiles. The nitro group at the para position on the phenyl ring can influence the compound's reactivity, polarity, and solubility in various solvents. Oxiranes are often used in organic synthesis and can serve as intermediates in the production of more complex molecules. Additionally, the presence of the nitro group may impart specific biological activities or toxicological properties, making it important to handle such compounds with care in laboratory settings. As with many chemical substances, safety data sheets should be consulted for handling and disposal guidelines.

2-(3-Nitrophenyl)oxirane
CAS:<p>2-(3-Nitrophenyl)oxirane is an oxidase inhibitor that inhibits the activity of many oxidases, including monoamine oxidases and aldehyde oxidases. It has been shown to inhibit the oxidative deamination of dibenamine, which is catalyzed by dehydrogenase. 2-(3-Nitrophenyl)oxirane also reacts with metal ions such as copper and zinc, forming a complex that can be reduced back to the parent compound by acceptor molecules such as NADH or glutathione. 2-(3-Nitrophenyl)oxirane binds to receptors in the brain and other organs and may inhibit neurotransmitter release from nerve endings.<br>2-(3-Nitrophenyl)oxirane inhibits acid production by inhibiting the activity of acid cholinesterase, which breaks down acetylcholine at synapses. The resulting accumulation of acetylcholine leads to paralysis of muscles in voluntary muscles (e</p>Formula:C8H7NO3Purity:Min. 95%Molecular weight:165.15 g/mol
