 |  | 2-Methyl-3-nitroaniline Usage And Synthesis |  
 | Chemical Properties | YELLOW TO GREENISH-YELLOW CRYSTALLINE POWDER |  | Uses | 2-Amino-6-nitrotoluene (2-Methyl-3-nitroaniline) has been used as a standard while evaluating the potential for degradation of nitroaromatic compounds by indigenous microorganisms. |  | General Description | Yellow rhombic needles (from water) or bright yellow powder. |  | Air & Water Reactions | 2-Methyl-3-nitroaniline may be sensitive to prolonged exposure to air. Insoluble in water. |  | Reactivity Profile | 2-Methyl-3-nitroaniline is incompatible with acids, acid chlorides, acid anhydrides, chloroformates and strong oxidizers. |  | Fire Hazard | Flash point data for 2-Methyl-3-nitroaniline are not available; however, 2-Methyl-3-nitroaniline is probably combustible. |  | Purification Methods | Crystallise the nitrotoluidine from EtOH or *C6H6. It is steam volatile. The acetyl derivative crystallises from aqueous EtOH and has m 164o. [Beilstein 12 I 395, 12 II 460, 12 III 1944, 2 IV 1811.] |
