4-Chloro-3-Nitroacetophenone

Description :

4′-Chloro-3′-nitroacetophenone was used to prepare starting reagent for the synthesis of 6- and 7-acetyl-3-methyl-2-quinoxalinecarboxamide1,4-dioxides[3].
Chemical Formula: C8H6ClNO3
Molecular Weight: Approximately 185.59 g/mol
Appearance: Typically appears as a pale yellow crystalline solid or powder
Acetophenone provides a phenyl group attached to a carbonyl group (–CO–)
Chloro group is substituted at the 4-position of the phenyl ring.
Nitro group is substituted at the 3-position of the phenyl ring.
Intermediate: Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of various organic compounds. The presence of both chloro and nitro groups makes it a versatile building block for further chemical transformations.
Toxicity: Specific toxicity data for 4-chloro-3-nitroacetophenone is limited, but as with other chloro and nitro compounds, it should be treated with caution due to potential health hazards.
Stability: Generally stable under dry conditions but should be stored in a cool, dry place, protected from light and moisture to maintain its integrity.
