3-Nitrobenzohydrazide (CAS 618-94-0) with ≥98.0% purity, supplied wholesale by Zyntex. Aromatic hydrazide building block for hydrazones, heterocycle synthesis and carbonyl derivatization. CoA and SDS with every lot.
3-Nitrobenzohydrazide (C7H7N3O3) is the hydrazide of 3-nitrobenzoic acid, a close derivative of Benzoic Acid. It is a pale yellow crystalline powder that combines two reactive groups in one molecule: a nitro group on the aromatic ring and a hydrazide group.
The hydrazide group reacts readily with aldehydes such as Benzaldehyde and with ketones to form hydrazones. These hydrazones widely are under study in medicinal chemistry and serve as intermediates for heterocycles such as 1,3,4-oxadiazoles, triazoles and pyrazoles. The nitro group can be reduced to an amine, which opens further synthesis routes.
It also serves as a derivatization reagent for carbonyl compounds and as a ligand precursor in coordination chemistry. For other hydrazine-based building blocks, Carbohydrazide is a related option.
Typical uses include, for example:
🧪 Heterocycle Synthesis
Intermediate for oxadiazoles, triazoles as well as pyrazoles.
💊 Medicinal Chemistry
Building block for hydrazone libraries in drug discovery research.
🔬 Analytical Chemistry
Derivatization reagent for aldehydes as well as ketones.
⚗️ Coordination Chemistry
Precursor for hydrazone ligands as well as metal complexes.
