2-Nitroethanol is a chemical compound that is used as an antioxidant, antimicrobial preservative, and flavoring agent in foods. It can be synthesized in an asymmetric synthesis reaction, which involves the addition of a nitro group to one of the two carbons in ethylene glycol. The toxicity profile of 2-nitroethanol has not been extensively studied, but it appears to have low toxicity based on animal studies. A number of inhibitory compounds have been identified for 2-nitroethanol, including benzalkonium chloride and propionate. The inhibitory effects of 2-nitroethanol are concentration dependent and may be due to hydrogen bonding with proteins or intramolecular hydrogen transfer reactions with other molecules. Inhibition of viral replication by 2-nitroethanol has been observed in influenza virus and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) studies. This inhibition may be due to alterations in fatty acid metabolism or changes in the
