| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Description]
Methyl 2-methyl-3-nitrobenzoate(59382-59-1) is an important organic synthetic material and pharmaceutical intermediate compound. It can be used for the preparation of the anticancer drug lenalidomide as well as other organic compounds (e.g., indole-4-carboxylic acid methyl ester, 5-nitroisocoumarin, 5-aminoisoquinolin-1(2H)-one, etc.).
| [Chemical Properties]
White crystalline powder | [Uses]
Methyl 2-methyl-3-nitrobenzoate(59382-59-1) may be used in the synthesis of:
- methyl indole-4-carboxylate
- 5-aminoisoquinolin-1(2H)-one
- 5-nitroisocoumarin
- substituted nitrostyrene benzoic acids, via reaction with aromatic aldehydes in the presence of DBU in DMSO
- 4-(hydroxymethyl)-1-tosylindole, via Batcho-Leimgruber modification of the Reissert indole synthesis
- [2-(4-fluorophenyl)-1H-indol-4-yl]-1-pyrrolidinylmethanone
| [Uses]
Methyl 2-methyl-3-nitrobenzoate(59382-59-1) may be used in the synthesis of methyl indole-4-carboxylate, 5-aminoisoquinolin-1(2H)-one, 5-nitroisocoumarin and [2-(4-fluorophenyl)-1H-indol-4-yl]-1-pyrrolidinylmethanone.
