2-Nitrobenzoyl chloride Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

CLEAR DARK BROWN LIQUID

General Description

Crystalline solid. 2-Nitrobenzoyl chloride is shock sensitive.

Air & Water Reactions

Insoluble in water. Decomposes in water.

Reactivity Profile

2-Nitrobenzoyl chloride is incompatible with bases (including amines), with strong oxidizing agents, and with alcohols. May react with reducing agents. May react vigorously or explosively if mixed with diisopropyl ether or other ethers in the presence of trace amounts of metal salts [J. Haz. Mat., 1981, 4, 291].

Health Hazard

ACUTE/CHRONIC HAZARDS: 2-Nitrobenzoyl chloride is an irritant to skin, eyes and tissues.

Fire Hazard

Flash point data is not available for 2-Nitrobenzoyl chloride, but 2-Nitrobenzoyl chloride is probably combustible.
