Description

Application

4-Methyl-3,5-dinitrobenzoic acid was used in characterization of the range of highly polar nitroaromatic compounds in water samples from a trinitrotoluene-contaminated waste disposal site. It was used as starting reagent for the asymmetric synthesis of the benzazocine core of FR900482.
