|  |  | Ethyl nitroacetate Usage And Synthesis | 
 | Chemical Properties | clear colourless to slightly yellow liquid |  | Uses | Ethyl Nitroacetate is an ester of nitrocarboxylic acid used as an intermediate in the preparation of unsubstituted amino acids. |  | Uses | Ethyl nitroacetate has been used in the synthesis of γ-oxoacids via Michael addition reaction with α,β-unsaturated ketones, fuctionalization of C4-position on pyrimidine and C6-position on 2?-deoxyguanosine to produce novel nucleosides, facile synthesis of α,α-diisobutylglycine, synthesis of DL-4,4-difluoroglutamic acid. It is also used as an intermediate in the preparation of unsubstituted amino acids. |  | Synthesis Reference(s) | The Journal of Organic Chemistry, 59, p. 1208, 1994 DOI: 10.1021/jo00084a047 |  | Purification Methods | Purify the ester by repeated distillation.
