Product Details

Products Description of 4-nitrotoluene.html">4-Nitrotoluene CAS#99-99-0
4-Nitrotoluene (CAS#99-99-0) typically appears as a colorless to light yellow crystalline solid at room temperature. It forms needle-like or plate-like crystals with a well-defined structure. This compound is stable under ambient conditions, with a melting point near 51.5℃ and boiling point near 238.5℃. Upon exposure to air, it maleic-anhydride.html">may develop a pale yellow tint due to minor oxidation or trace impurities. Overall, it exhibits the typical physical traits of organic nitro compounds. 4-Nitrotoluene

Product Application

4-nitrotoluene (CAS#99-99-0) is a key organic chemical intermediate. It is widely used in synthesizing azo dyes, pigments such as toluidine red, and other colorants. It also serves as a raw material for manufacturing pharmaceuticals (including antipyretics and analgesics) and pesticides. In addition, it can act as a reaction medium in organic synthesis or be used to prepare high-molecular monomers with nitro functional groups.
