2-Methyl-6-nitroanisole is a molecule that contains the methyl group, an ether group, and an aromatic ring. It can be synthesized by nitration of 2-methyl-6-nitrophenol with nitronium tetrafluoroborate, nitronium trifluoromethanesulfonate, or nitronium tetrachloroferrate. This compound has been shown to react with hydronium ions to form 2-methyl-6-nitrophenolate and methoxy radicals, which may be responsible for its attack on DNA. 2MNA also reacts with cresols and anisoles to form methyl ethers. Other reactions include the formation of a number of isomers including 2-methylquinoline, pyridine carboxylic acid, 1H-indolecarboxylic acid, 3H-[1]benzopyran carboxylic acid and 3H-[
