:4-Ethyl-2-nitrophenol
Description:
4-Ethyl-2-nitrophenol, with the CAS number 56520-98-0, is an organic compound that belongs to the class of nitrophenols. It features a phenolic structure with a nitro group (-NO2) and an ethyl group (-C2H5) attached to the aromatic ring. This compound typically appears as a yellow to orange solid and is known for its moderate solubility in organic solvents, while being less soluble in water due to the hydrophobic ethyl group. The presence of the nitro group imparts acidic properties, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitutions. 4-Ethyl-2-nitrophenol is often used in research and industrial applications, including as an intermediate in the synthesis of dyes, pharmaceuticals, and agrochemicals.
