Glyceryl 1,2-dinitrate

Description:
Glyceryl 1,2-dinitrate, also known as glycerin dinitrate, is an organic nitrate compound with the chemical formula C3H5N2O6. It is a colorless, oily liquid that is highly explosive and sensitive to heat and shock, making it a significant compound in the field of explosives and propellants. Glyceryl 1,2-dinitrate is a derivative of glycerol, where two of the hydroxyl groups are esterified with nitric acid, resulting in its nitrate functional groups. This compound is known for its vasodilatory properties, which have been utilized in medicinal applications, particularly in the treatment of angina pectoris. However, due to its explosive nature, it requires careful handling and storage. The compound is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water. Its stability can be affected by factors such as temperature and the presence of impurities, necessitating stringent safety measures during its use and transportation. Overall, glyceryl 1,2-dinitrate is a compound of interest both in industrial applications and pharmacology, albeit with significant safety considerations.
