nitrofenols
Nitrofenols, also known as nitrophenols, are a group of organic compounds characterized by the presence of both a nitro group (NO2) and a hydroxyl group (OH) attached to a benzene ring. They are derivatives of phenol. The position of these two functional groups on the benzene ring leads to different isomers, such as 2-nitrophenol, 3-nitrophenol, and 4-nitrophenol. Each isomer exhibits distinct physical and chemical properties.
These compounds are typically colored solids, with varying degrees of solubility in water and organic solvents
Nitrofenols find applications in various fields. They are used as intermediates in the synthesis of dyes, pharmaceuticals,
