CAS 769907-13-3

Hydrazine,[(2-nitrophenyl)methyl]-

Description:

Hydrazine, [(2-nitrophenyl)methyl]- (CAS 769907-13-3) is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a hydrazine functional group attached to a 2-nitrophenylmethyl moiety. This compound typically exhibits properties associated with both hydrazines and nitro compounds, including potential reactivity and toxicity. It is likely to be a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and specific formulation. The presence of the nitro group suggests that it may have significant electron-withdrawing properties, which can influence its reactivity in various chemical reactions, such as nucleophilic substitutions or reductions. Hydrazine derivatives are often used in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and as intermediates in organic synthesis. However, due to the potential hazards associated with hydrazine compounds, including toxicity and environmental concerns, handling and disposal must be conducted with caution. Safety data sheets should be consulted for specific handling guidelines and risk assessments.
