Product Information

• Name: 3,5-Dinitrobenzoyl chloride
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 3,5-Dinitrobenzoyl chloride is a chemical compound that is used in the synthesis of other compounds. It is made by reacting hydrochloric acid with 3,5-dinitrobenzoic acid. The reaction solution has a pH of 2 to 4 and can be used to test for the presence of amines in urine samples. 3,5-Dinitrobenzoyl chloride reacts with amines to form an ester linkage and produces a yellow coloration. It also reacts with fatty acids to form sodium carbonate, which produces a white precipitate. 3,5-Dinitrobenzoyl chloride can be quantified gravimetrically by dissolving it in nitric acid and measuring the weight of the resulting nitrate formed. This compound is also used as an intermediate in the synthesis of sirt2 inhibitors such as nicotinamide riboside.
