General description
Methyl 5-nitro-2-furoate is a nitrofuran derivative. Its density, freezing point and refractive index have been evaluated. The reduction of methyl 5-nitro-2-furoate using milk xanthine oxidase has been reported to form methyl 5-hydroxylamino-2-furoate and methyl 5-amino-2-furoate. The utility of methyl 5-nitro-2-furoate as a matrix compound for matrix assisted ionization vacuum (MAIV) has been assessed using bovine insulin as an analyte.
Application
Methyl 5-nitro-2-furoate may be used in the synthesis of 5-nitro-2-furoylhydrazine and 5-nitro-2-furamide.

After methyl 5-nitro-2-furoate was incubated with milk xanthine oxidase, three reduction products were isolated from the incubation mixture. Among them, two reduction products were new types of nitrofuran metabolites, i.e., metabolites 1 and 2 were identified as the dihydroxyhydrazine derivative
