CAS 2976-34-3: Benzene, 1-(methylsulfonyl)-2-nitro-
Description:Benzene, 1-(methylsulfonyl)-2-nitro-, also known by its CAS number 2976-34-3, is an aromatic compound characterized by a benzene ring substituted with a methylsulfonyl group and a nitro group. The presence of the methylsulfonyl group (-SO2CH3) imparts polar characteristics to the molecule, enhancing its solubility in polar solvents. The nitro group (-NO2) is known for its electron-withdrawing properties, which can influence the reactivity of the compound, particularly in electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions. This compound is typically a solid at room temperature and may exhibit moderate toxicity, necessitating careful handling. Its applications may include use in organic synthesis, as an intermediate in the production of dyes, pharmaceuticals, or agrochemicals. As with many nitro compounds, it may also be subject to regulations due to potential environmental and health impacts. Proper safety measures should be observed when working with this substance, including the use of personal protective equipment and adherence to relevant safety guidelines.
