1-BROMO-2,4-DINITROBENZENE Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

YELLOW CRYSTALLINE SOLID

Uses

1-Bromo-2,4-dinitrobenzene has been used in the preparation of 2,4-dinitrophenol via treatment with KO2-crown ether complex in benzene. It is used as substrate in protein determination and glutathione S-transferase (GST) assay of chicken and rat prostaglandin D2 synthase (PGDS).

Uses

1-Bromo-2,4-dinitrobenzene has been used:

• in the preparation of 2,4-dinitrophenol via treatment with KO₂-crown ether complex in benzene
• as substrate in protein determination and glutathione S-transferase (GST) assay of chicken and rat prostaglandin D₂ synthase (PGDS)

Definition

ChEBI: An organobromine compound that is bromobenzene substituted at C-2 and -4 with nitro groups.

Purification Methods

Crystallise it from ethyl ether, isopropyl ether, 80% EtOH or absolute EtOH. [Beilstein 5 III 640, 5 IV 749.]
