4-Methyl-3-nitrobenzaldehyde

Description:

4-Methyl-3-nitrobenzaldehyde is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure, featuring a benzaldehyde functional group with a methyl and a nitro substituent. Its molecular formula is C8H8N2O3, indicating the presence of carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen atoms. The compound typically appears as a yellow to orange crystalline solid and has a distinct aromatic odor. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone but has limited solubility in water. The nitro group contributes to its reactivity, making it useful in various chemical syntheses, including the production of dyes and pharmaceuticals. Additionally, 4-Methyl-3-nitrobenzaldehyde can undergo electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions due to the electron-withdrawing nature of the nitro group, influencing its reactivity and the orientation of further substitutions. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested. Proper storage in a cool, dry place away from incompatible substances is recommended to maintain its stability.
