119-75-5

Red-brown crystalline powder or reddish-brown solid.

2-NITRODIPHENYLAMINE(119-75-5) is incompatible with strong oxidizers, strong acids and strong bases.

This chemical may be sensitive to prolonged exposure to air. Insoluble in water.

Flash point data for this chemical are not available; however, 2-NITRODIPHENYLAMINE is probably combustible.

2-Nitrodiphenylamine is a double-base (DB) rocket propellant stabilizer and its microencapsulation potentially improves the shelf life of DB rocket propellants.

Red Crystalline Solid

(2-Nitrophenyl)phenylamine (cas# 119-75-5) is a compound useful in organic synthesis.

Symptoms of exposure to this chemical include irritation of the skin, eyes, mucous membranes and upper respiratory tract. Structurally similar chemicals may cause methemoglobinemia.  
ACUTE/CHRONIC HAZARDS: This chemical may be harmful by inhalation or ingestion. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and nitrogen oxides

The synthesis of 2-Nitrodiphenylamine is as follows:The mixture of phenylboronic acid (1 mmol), aromatic amine (1.2 mmol) and 0.12 g (2 mmol) of KF in DMSO (4 mL) were added to Cu-IS-AMBA-MNPs (0.06 g, 0.025 mmol) at 130 °C under nitrogen atmosphere for 2 h with vigorous stirring. Then, after completion of the reaction, the catalyst was separated by an external magnet and washed with dry CH2Cl2 three times and checked for its reusability. The solvent of the reaction mixture was evaporated by a rotary evaporator and then ethyl acetate and water were added to the residue. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous MgSO4. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure and the crude product was purified by column chromatography using ethyl acetate/n-hexane.
