Application

  • 2-Nitrophenol can be used in the iron-catalyzed synthesis of 2-arylbenzoxazole from benzylic alcohols.
  • It is employed in the preparation of heterodiazocines, which are potential photochromic compounds for applications in photopharmacology and functional materials.
  • It can be used as a precursor in synthesizing “off-on” chemosensor for Hg2+ detection in aqueous acetonitrile solution.
  • Additional application includes the synthesis of 1,4-benzoxazine derivative in the total synthesis of antimicrobial agent, levofloxacin.
