Description

3,4-Dinitrobenzyl alcohol is a synthetic chemical that is used as an intermediate for the synthesis of other chemicals. It is a dipole with a molecular weight of 188.2 g/mol and has two substituents. 3,4-Dinitrobenzyl alcohol is produced by the oxidation of 3,4-dichlorobenzyl alcohol with nitric acid and sulfuric acid. This process occurs in industrial settings to produce dyes, perfumes, and medicines. 3,4-Dinitrobenzyl alcohol is used as a starting material for the production of other compounds that are used in the textile industry or as insecticides.

3,4-Dinitrobenzyl Alcohol has been shown to have steric interactions with molecules such as 2-chloroethanol and methyl 2-chloroacetate in order to inhibit their reactions. This substance also inhibits the activity of enzymes like Acetylch
