2-Nitrobenzyl alcohol Usage And Synthesis

Uses

2-Nitrobenzyl alcohol is a useful research chemical.

Chemical Properties

white to light yellow crystal powde

Uses

The o-nitrobenzyl group (o-NB) is utilized frequently in polymer and materials science. It covers the use of based cross-linkers for photodegradable hydrogels, o-NB side chain functionalization in (block) copolymers, o-NB side chain functionalization for thin film patterning, o-NB for self-assembled monolayers, photo cleavable block copolymers, and photo cleavable bioconjugates.
