General description

2,6-Difluoronitrobenzene is an organic building block. Molecular structure, conformation and potential to internal rotation of 2,6-difluoronitrobenzene been studied by gas-phase electron diffraction (GED), MP2 ab initio, and by B3LYP density functional calculations.

Application

2,6-Difluoronitrobenzene may be used in the preparation of secondary amine precursors, required for the synthesis of two families of nitric oxide donors.
