| | 1-Methoxy-2,4-dinitrobenzene Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | yellow crystals or crystalline powder | | Uses | It can be used as a dye ingredient. It is one of the insensitive nitroaromatic ingredients increasingly used as a replacement for 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) in munitions. | | Definition | ChEBI: A member of the class of dinitroanisoles that is 2-nitroanisole in which the hydrogen para to the methoxy group is replaced by a second nitro group. | | Production Methods | 2,4-Dinitrochlorobenzene is treated with methanolic sodium hydroxide in a process similar to that described for 4-nitroanisole. 2,4-Dinitrophenetole [610-54-8] is similarly manufactured by using ethanol. | | Flammability and Explosibility | Not classified | | Safety Profile | Poison by ingestion.
Mutation data reported. When heated to
decomposition it emits toxic fumes of NOx.
