General description

trans-β-Methyl-β-nitrostyrene (1-phenyl-2-nitropropene), a nitrostyrene derivative is an α,β-disubstituted nitroalkene. It has been synthesized by reacting benzaldehyde with nitroethane and butylamine. Spectroscopic analysis of 1-phenyl-2-nitropropene has been done using FT-IR, FT-Raman, NMR and UV.
