General description

2,4-Dinitrobenzonitrile is formed as one of the reaction products from the elimination reactions of (E)-2,4-dinitrobenzaldehyde O-aryloximes.[1] (E)-2,4-Dinitrobenzonitrile is obtained from the reaction between (E)-2,4-dinitrobenzaldehyde O-benzoyloxime with i-Pr2NH in methylcyanide.[2]

Application

2,4-Dinitrobenzonitrile may be used to synthesize N′-hydroxy-2,4-dinitrobenzimidamide.[3]
