Isoconazole nitrate(CAS: 24168-96-5)

Isoconazole nitrate (CAS: 24168-96-5) is a white crystalline compound with a molecular weight of approximately 314.13 g/mol. It has good solubility in water and organic solvents. Isoconazole nitrate is relatively stable under normal conditions but may decompose upon heating. It reacts well with bases and can form complexes with metal ions.

Isoconazole nitrate is typically synthesized by reacting isoconazole with nitric acid. The reaction is carried out under mild conditions, with the product isolated by recrystallization from a suitable solvent. The process yields a pure product with good selectivity and high yield.

Isoconazole nitrate (CAS: 24168-96-5) is primarily used in the pharmaceutical industry as an antifungal agent. It is also used in some agricultural applications as a fungicide. Additionally, it has limited use in the chemical industry for synthesis of other compounds.

Proper personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves, goggles, and a lab coat should be worn when handling Isoconazole nitrate (CAS: 24168-96-5). Work should be conducted in a fume hood due to its potential volatility. Spills should be cleaned up carefully, following standard safety procedures, and the material safety data sheet (SDS) should be consulted for detailed instructions.
