What is 2-Chloro-5-nitrobenzonitrile?
Chemical properties
LIGHT YELLOW CRYSTALLINE POWDER. 2-Chloro-5-nitrobenzonitrile [16588-02-6], 1-chloro-2-cyano-4-nitrobenzene, Mr 182.57, mp 108 – 109℃, forms yellow needle-shaped crystals. The chlorine atom ortho to the nitrile group is prone to a range of nucleophilic substitution reactions, of which that with ammonia has achieved industrial importance. The nitrile is produced by nitration of 2-chlorobenzonitrile (see above) at 0 ℃.
The Uses of 2-Chloro-5-nitrobenzonitrile
2-Chloro-5-nitrobenzonitrile was used in online detection of rat glutathione S-transferase P1-specific inhibitors by high-resolution screening technology.
