(3,5-Dinitrophenyl)methanol(CAS: 71022-43-0)

(3,5-Dinitrophenyl)methanol is a derivative of phenol with two nitro groups attached to the 3 and 5 positions of the phenyl ring, and a methyl group attached to the phenol ring. It is a colorless or pale yellow liquid with a phenolic odor. It is used in research, pharmaceuticals, and some industrial applications due to its reactivity and chemical properties.

(3,5-Dinitrophenyl)methanol is primarily used in the synthesis of organic compounds, as a reagent in chemical reactions, and in some pharmaceutical formulations. It also has applications in research as a building block for various organic molecules.

(3,5-Dinitrophenyl)methanol can be hazardous and should be handled with care. It is classified as a flammable liquid and may cause skin irritation and respiratory issues. Proper protective measures, including gloves and a laboratory coat, are essential. It is important to follow safety guidelines and store it away from sources of heat and ignition.

(3,5-Dinitrophenyl)methanol should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources. It should be kept in a tightly sealed container to prevent evaporation and contamination. Handle with proper safety equipment and store in a well-ventilated area to minimize inhalation risks. Avoid contact with skin and eyes, and dispose of waste materials according to local regulations.
