:Benzonitrile,2-methyl-3,5-dinitro-
Description:
Benzonitrile, 2-methyl-3,5-dinitro- is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a benzonitrile group with additional nitro and methyl substituents. Its molecular structure features a benzene ring substituted with a nitrile group (–C≡N) and two nitro groups (–NO2) at the 3 and 5 positions, along with a methyl group (–CH3) at the 2 position. This compound is typically a yellow crystalline solid and is known for its relatively low solubility in water but higher solubility in organic solvents. It exhibits properties such as being a potential intermediate in organic synthesis and may have applications in the production of dyes, pharmaceuticals, or agrochemicals. The presence of nitro groups contributes to its reactivity, making it a candidate for various chemical reactions, including nitration and reduction processes. As with many nitro compounds, it may pose environmental and health risks, necessitating careful handling and disposal.

CAS:<p>2-Methyl-3,5-dinitrobenzonitrile is a nitro compound that is used as a coccidiostat in the poultry industry. It inhibits the development of coccidiosis in chickens by preventing the growth of protozoa. 2-Methyl-3,5-dinitrobenzonitrile binds to DNA and RNA and prevents protein synthesis, thereby inhibiting cell division and causing death. This drug has been shown to be an analog of benzene, hexane, and pyridine. The structural analysis of this molecule reveals that it contains two nitro groups attached to a benzene ring. One nitro group is located on each methyl group. The hydrogen atoms are replaced by fluorine atoms with one hydrogen atom being replaced by chloride atom. The other nitro group is located on the 3rd carbon on the right side of the benzene ring. This molecule also contains three chlorine atoms which are attached to two adjacent carbons</p>Formula:C8H5N3O4Purity:Min. 95%Molecular weight:207.14 g/mol
