• Beschreibung: 4-Methyl-2-nitrophenol is a nitro compound that is used as a reagent in organic analytical chemistry. It reacts with hydrogen chloride to form the corresponding hydrochloride salt. The hydrochloride salt can be converted back to 4-methyl-2-nitrophenol by treatment with sodium hydroxide. This reaction mechanism is thought to involve intramolecular hydrogen bonding and an inorganic acid acting as a proton donor. The use of ionization techniques, such as chemical ionization or electron impact, can help determine the structure of 4-methyl-2-nitrophenol using mass spectrometry.4-Methyl-2-nitrophenol has been shown to inhibit acetylcholinesterase activity in Sprague Dawley rats. Acetylcholine esterase inhibitors are often used for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease and other neurological disorders.
