Application

4,5-Dimethoxy-2-nitrobenzyl alcohol (6-nitroveratryl alcohol) is suitable reagent used in the synthesis of 4,5-dimethoxy-2-nitrobenzyl methacrylate, a photolabile monomer and 2-(4-((4-(4,5-dimethoxy-2-nitrobenzyloxy)phenyl)cyclohexylidene)methyl)phenoxy)-N,N-dimethylethanamine, a caged cyclofen-OH ligand.It may be used in the synthesis of the following:1-[[(chlorocarbonyl)oxy]methyl]-4,5-dimethoxy-2-nitrobenzenebis(4,5-dimethoxy-2-nitrophenyl)ethylene glycol, a photolabile protecting groupoptically-sensitive monomernitroveratryl (NV) protected α-hydroxyacetic acid (αG) (NV-αG-OH), required in the preparation of nitroveratryl (NV) protected cyanomethyl (CM) ester of α-hydroxyacetic acid (αG) (NV-αG-CM)4,5-dimethoxy-2-nitrobenzyl p-nitro-phenylcarbonate6-nitroveratryloxycarbonyl chloride (NVOCCl), a reagent used in the protection of amino function in amino sugars

General description

4,5-Dimethoxy-2-nitrobenzyl alcohol (6-Nitroveratryl Alcohol) is 2-nitrobenzyl alcohol derivative. It has been reported to be one of the oxidation products of veratryl (3,4-dimethoxybenzyl) alcohol by lignin peroxidase (isolated from Phanerochaete chrysosporium).
