Benzene,1-methyl-2-(2-nitroethenyl)-

Description:

Benzene, 1-methyl-2-(2-nitroethenyl)-, also known by its CAS number 34222-71-4, is an organic compound characterized by a benzene ring substituted with a methyl group and a nitroethenyl group. This compound features a conjugated system due to the presence of the nitroethenyl moiety, which can influence its reactivity and stability. The presence of the nitro group typically imparts electron-withdrawing properties, affecting the compound's electrophilic and nucleophilic reactivity. The methyl group serves as an electron-donating substituent, which can stabilize certain reaction intermediates. This compound may exhibit properties such as moderate volatility and solubility in organic solvents, making it relevant in various chemical applications, including synthesis and as an intermediate in organic chemistry. Additionally, due to the presence of both the nitro and vinyl groups, it may participate in various chemical reactions, including electrophilic substitution and addition reactions. Safety and handling precautions should be observed, as compounds containing nitro groups can be hazardous.

Formula: C₉H₉NO₂
