CAS 610-39-9: 3,4-Dinitrotoluene
Description:3,4-Dinitrotoluene (DNT) is an organic compound with the molecular formula C7H6N2O4, characterized by the presence of two nitro groups (-NO2) attached to a toluene ring. It appears as a yellow crystalline solid and is primarily used in the production of explosives, particularly as a precursor to TNT (trinitrotoluene). DNT is known for its relatively high stability compared to other nitro compounds, making it less sensitive to shock and friction. However, it is still considered hazardous, as it can pose health risks through inhalation, ingestion, or skin contact, leading to symptoms such as headaches, dizziness, and potential long-term effects on the liver and blood. The compound is also classified as an environmental pollutant, as it can contaminate soil and water sources. Proper handling and disposal are essential to mitigate its impact on human health and the environment. Overall, 3,4-Dinitrotoluene is a significant compound in both industrial applications and environmental chemistry.
