General description

2-Methoxy-5-nitroaniline is an aromatic metabolite of 2,4-dinitroanisole.

Application

2-Methoxy-5-nitroaniline was used in the synthesis of 5-(9-acridinylamino)-p-anisidines via reaction with 9-anilinoacridines. It was also used in the synthesis of disazo disperse dyes containing nitro and methoxy groups, used for the dyeing of polyester fibre.

An index of carcinogenic potency for chemicals tested in chronic animal experiments is described. By analogy with the well-known 'lethal dose 50' (LD50) of quantal bioassay, a 'tumorigenic dose 50' (TD50) may be defined (in the absence both of tumors

2,4-Dinitroanisole (DNAN) is an insensitive munitions compound considered to replace conventional explosives such as 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT). DNAN undergoes facile microbial reduction to 2-methoxy-5-nitroaniline (MENA) and 2,4-diaminoanisole (DAAN). This study investigated the inhibitory effect of DNAN, MENA, and DAAN toward various

Reductive degradation of three typical multi-substituted nitroaromatic pollutants by zero valent iron was comprehensively compared in terms of performance, kinetics, toxicity and mechanisms in this study. The results showed that 0.5 mM 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB), 2,4-dinitroanisole (DNAN) and 2,4-dinitrophenol (DNP) could
