5-Nitro-1,3-benzenedimethanol

Description:

5-Nitro-1,3-benzenedimethanol, identified by its CAS number 71176-55-1, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a nitro group and two hydroxymethyl groups attached to a benzene ring. This compound typically exhibits a pale yellow to light brown appearance and is soluble in polar solvents due to the hydroxymethyl groups, which enhance its hydrophilicity. The nitro group contributes to its reactivity, making it a potential candidate for various chemical reactions, including nitration and reduction processes. The presence of multiple functional groups suggests that it may participate in hydrogen bonding, influencing its physical properties such as melting and boiling points. Additionally, 5-Nitro-1,3-benzenedimethanol may have applications in organic synthesis, pharmaceuticals, or as an intermediate in the production of other chemical compounds. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as nitro compounds can be sensitive to heat and shock, and may pose environmental hazards.
