APPLICATIONS

Nitro- is the prefix indicating presence of the group -NO2. Historically They are abundant in dyes and explosives. Nitro compounds, organic hydrocarbons having one or more NO2 groups bonded via nitrogen to the carbon framework, are versatile intermediate in organic synthesis of; 
  • Michael addition
  • Reduction
  • Henry Reaction (Nitro-aldol reaction)
  • Nef reaction
  • O-Alkylation
  • Cycloaddition
  • Substitution, Elimination, Conversion reaction
  • Alkylation, Acylation, and Halogenation
 

m-Nitrobenzotrifluoride is used as an intermediate for manufacturing synthetic organic compounds, pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals.
