Description

2-Methyl-6-nitroquinoline is a hydrogen bond donor that is an acidic quinoline derivative. It is used in the synthesis of other compounds, such as dyes and pharmaceuticals. 2-Methyl-6-nitroquinoline reacts with water vapor to form acid, which is stabilized by the formation of intramolecular hydrogen bonds. This reaction mechanism also leads to an enhancement in the reaction yield due to a dipole effect. The reaction time can be increased or decreased by changing the concentration of reactants or by adding a catalyst. The nitro group on 2-Methyl-6-nitroquinoline can undergo an acidic hydrolysis reaction when heated, forming nitrous acid and hydroquinone.
