2-[2-(hydroxymethyl)-5-nitro-1H-imidazol-1-yl]ethanol

Description:
2-[2-(Hydroxymethyl)-5-nitro-1H-imidazol-1-yl]ethanol, with the CAS number 4812-40-2, is a chemical compound characterized by its imidazole ring, which is a five-membered heterocyclic structure containing nitrogen atoms. This compound features a hydroxymethyl group and a nitro group, contributing to its unique chemical properties and potential biological activity. It is typically a solid at room temperature and is soluble in polar solvents due to the presence of hydroxyl groups. The nitro group can impart significant reactivity, making it a candidate for various chemical reactions, including reduction and nucleophilic substitution. Its structure suggests potential applications in pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of antimicrobial agents or other therapeutic compounds. The presence of both hydroxymethyl and nitro functionalities may influence its interaction with biological systems, potentially affecting its pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics. As with many chemical substances, safety data should be consulted to understand its handling and toxicity profiles.
