Description

2-Chloro-4-nitrotoluene is a chemical compound that belongs to the class of nitro compounds. It is used in the manufacture of other chemicals and as an additive for gasoline. 2-Chloro-4-nitrotoluene has been shown to have toxic effects on human lung cells. It has also been shown to inhibit mitochondrial membrane potential, leading to cell death by apoptosis. 2-Chloro-4-nitrotoluene can be used in nanotubes as a detection method for hydrogen peroxide and other reactive oxygen species, with a sensitivity that is 10 times higher than that of conventional methods. 2CNTT has also been shown to enhance the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy properties of gold nanoparticles.
