CAS 23145-65-5: Benzene,4-(bromomethyl)-2-methoxy-1-nitro-

Description: Benzene, 4-(bromomethyl)-2-methoxy-1-nitro- is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic benzene ring substituted with a bromomethyl group, a methoxy group, and a nitro group. The presence of these substituents influences its chemical properties and reactivity. The bromomethyl group can serve as a reactive site for further chemical transformations, while the methoxy group typically enhances the compound's solubility in organic solvents and can influence its electronic properties due to its electron-donating nature. The nitro group, being electron-withdrawing, can affect the compound's reactivity, particularly in electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions. This compound may exhibit moderate toxicity and should be handled with care, as is common with many halogenated and nitro-substituted aromatic compounds. Its applications may include use in organic synthesis, as an intermediate in the production of dyes, pharmaceuticals, or agrochemicals. Proper safety measures should be observed when working with this substance due to potential health hazards associated with its components.
