Beschreibung

5-Nitrobenzofuran-2-carboxylic acid is a chromophore with an orange-yellow color. This compound has been identified in soil and water samples, but it is not known to be produced by any living organism. It is possible that 5-nitrobenzofuran-2-carboxylic acid is produced by thermally or opportunistic bacteria, such as Chromobacterium violaceum, as a result of the oxidation of 5-nitrobenzofuran. The molecule's fluorescence can be quenched by chloroformate, which suggests that this compound may play a role in the synthesis of other aromatic compounds. The enzyme ethyl bromoacetate alkylates 5-nitrobenzofuran-2-carboxylic acid and produces ethyl 2-(5'-nitrobenzo[d][1,3]dioxol-5'-yl)acetate.
