Brand:Biosynth
Description:2-Methyl-6-nitrobenzoic acid is a yellow needle solid that is soluble in organic solvents. It is used as a reagent to prepare other chemicals and has been shown to react with sodium hydrogen sulfate, chloride, and sulfuric acid to form 2-methyl-6-nitrobenzenesulfonic acid. The mixture of 2-methyl-6-nitrobenzoic acid and sodium hydrogen sulfate reacts violently with chlorine gas or argon. This reaction solution can be evaporated by heating at atmospheric pressure or under vacuum, leaving 2-methyl-6-nitrobenzenesulfonic acid behind. 2MBA can also be purified by filtration or recrystallization from a suitable solvent such as chloroform or ether.
