General Description

2,4-Dimethyl-6-nitrophenol is a synthetic organic compound that belongs to the phenols and derivatives chemical class. 2,4-DIMETHYL-6-NITROPHENOL is characterized by the presence of a phenol core, methyl groups on the second and fourth carbon atoms, and a nitro group on the sixth carbon atom. It is typically used in the production of various dyes and pigments due to its bright yellow color. The chemical is very soluble in water and can be degraded in the environment by microorganisms. The toxicological properties of this substance have not been thoroughly investigated, however, as with many chemicals, high concentrations or chronic exposure may be harmful to human health or the environment.

Synthesis of new carbon-11 labeled benzoxazole derivatives for PET imaging of 5-HT3 receptor

5-HT3 receptor is an attractive target for the development of therapeutic agents for use in brain, heart and cancer diseases, and imaging agents for use in biomedical imaging technique PET. Benzoxazole derivatives are a novel class of 5-HT3 receptor partial agonists with high binding affinity. Carbon-11 labeled benzoxazole derivatives have been synthesized as new potential PET radioligands for imaging 5-HT3 receptor. The target tracers were prepared by N-[11C]methylation of their corresponding precursors using [11C]CH3OTf and isolated by HPLC purification procedure in 40-50% radiochemical yields, which were decay corrected to the end of bombardment (EOB), based on [11C]CO2. The overall synthesis time was 20-25 min from EOB. The radiochemical purity was >99%, and specific activity was in a range of 74-111 GBq/μmol at the end of synthesis (EOS).

15N Nuclear Polarisation in Nitration and Related Reactions. Part 7. The Mechanisms of Rearrangement of 4-Methyl-4-nitrocyclohexa-2,5-dienones

The rearrangement of 4-methyl-4-nitrocyclohexa-2,5-dienone to 4-methyl-2-nitrophenol has been studied in acetic anhydride at 22-37.5 deg C in the presence of varying concentrations of sulfuric acid.Similar studies have been carried out on the 15N labelled compound and on the effects of some substituents (2-Me, 3-Me, 2-NO2).During reaction, the thermal rearrangement of the labelled compound gives very strongly enhanced 15N NMR absorption signals (enhancement coefficient ca. 1000) for both the substrate and the product.For acid catalysed reaction, the enhancement coefficient of the signals is less (ca. 130) but still sufficient to indicate a homolytic reaction path.This interpretation is shown to be consistent with the properties of the radicals involved and with the substituent effects observed.
