CAS 55912-20-4

4-Chloro-3-nitrobenzenemethanol

Description:

4-Chloro-3-nitrobenzenemethanol, with the CAS number 55912-20-4, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a chlorinated aromatic ring and a nitro group, along with a hydroxymethyl functional group. This compound features a benzene ring substituted at the 4-position with a chlorine atom and at the 3-position with a nitro group, which can influence its reactivity and properties. The hydroxymethyl group (-CH2OH) adds to its functionality, making it a potential candidate for various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitutions and coupling reactions. The presence of both electron-withdrawing groups (the nitro and chloro substituents) can affect the compound's acidity and reactivity, often making it more electrophilic. 4-Chloro-3-nitrobenzenemethanol may be used in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, or as an intermediate in organic synthesis. As with many aromatic compounds, it may exhibit moderate toxicity and should be handled with appropriate safety precautions in laboratory settings.
