Application

2-Nitrobenzyl chloride was used in the synthesis of S-(2-nitrobenzyl)cysteine which was inserted into human erythropoietin. 2-Nitrobenzyl chloride was used to prepare 4,4′-dinitrostillbene.

Biochem/physiol Actions

2-Nitrobenzyl chloride reacts with N-methyldiethanolamine and further reaction of the resulting quaternary diol with thionyl chloride at room temperature yields nitrobenzyl mustard quaternary salts.
