Product Information

• Name: 3-Chloro-5-nitroisoquinoline
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 3-Chloro-5-nitroisoquinoline is a heterocyclic compound that belongs to the isoquinoline class. It can be synthesized by reacting 3,4,5-trichlorobenzaldehyde with ammonia and sodium nitrite in an aqueous solution. The synthesis of this compound has been shown to produce two isomers, thiazolo and thiazole. Spectroscopic data for this compound have been obtained in the solid state and in solution. The spectra show strong absorptions at about 250 nm and at about 590 nm. The heterocyclic ring has a nitrogen atom as one of its members, which is responsible for the absorption at around 250 nm. The absorption at 590 nm is due to the presence of an aromatic ring system.
