General description

1,2-Dinitrobenzene (o-Dinitrobenzene) is one of the nitroaromatic compounds present in urine which has been studied using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry-selected ion monitoring methods†. The electrochemistry of 1,2-dinitrobenzene (o-Dinitrobenzene) is strongly affected by 1,3-diphenylurea.

Application

  • A highly divergent Pictet-Spengler approach for pyrrolo quinoxalines from aryl amine using 1,2-dinitrobenzene as an oxidant: Discusses the utility of 1,2-dinitrobenzene as an oxidant in organic synthesis, relevant for developing novel pharmaceuticals (Pardeshi et al., 2019).

[reaction: see text] The electrochemistry of 1,2-dinitrobenzene (1,2-DNB), 1,3-dinitrobenzene (1,3-DNB), and 1,4-dinitrobenzene (1,4-DNB) is strongly affected by the presence of 1,3-diphenylurea. In DMF, the second reduction potential of all three DNBs shifts substantially positive in the presence of the urea

A population of CD8+ T cells from dinitrobenzene sulfonate-primed mice produce soluble effector molecules that down-regulate the magnitude of dinitrophenol-specific contact hypersensitivity reactions. These soluble molecules express the binding specificity and serologic determinants of alpha/beta TCR. To examine the requirement

The metabolism of radiolabeled dinitrobenzene (DNB) isomers was compared in hepatocytes and hepatic subcellular fractions isolated from male Fischer-344 rats. Under aerobic conditions, reduction was the major metabolic pathway for m- and p- DNB in hepatocytes with m- and p-nitroaniline

In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the overexpression of ROD1 confers resistance to o-dinitrobenzene (o-DNB), a representative of target drugs of glutathione S-transferase. The roles of Rod1 in drug resistance have remained to be determined. We isolated the rog3 mutation as a suppressor
