1Nitro2benzene
1-Nitro-2-benzene, also known as 2-nitrotoluene, is an organic compound with the chemical formula C7H7NO2. It is one of three isomers of nitrotoluene, the others being 1-nitro-3-benzene (3-nitrotoluene) and 1-nitro-4-benzene (4-nitrotoluene). This compound consists of a benzene ring substituted with a nitro group and a methyl group at adjacent positions (ortho positions).
2-Nitrotoluene is typically a pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on temperature, with a characteristic aromatic
The primary method of production for 2-nitrotoluene involves the nitration of toluene. This reaction typically uses
2-Nitrotoluene serves as an important intermediate in the synthesis of various chemicals. It is a precursor
