4-NITROPHENETOLE Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

brown crystalline solid

Physical properties

4-Ethoxynitrobenzene, crystallizes from ethanol as prisms, which are insoluble in water and moderately soluble in ethanol or ether.

Uses

Reduction of 4-Ethoxynitrobenzene gives p-phenetidine [156-43-4], which undergoes similar reactions to p-anisidine and is also the intermediate for the analgesic phenacetin (4-ethoxyacetanilide [62- 44-2]) and the sweetener dulcin (4-ethoxyphenylurea [150-69-6]).

Uses

Dyes and other intermediates.
