Chemistry Organic Building Blocks Nitroes 2-methyl-3-nitrobenzoic acid
These compounds have the same murcko framework: benzene,and at least 3 kinds of functional groups( —NO2,—CH3,—COOH).
Reduction: The nitro group in nitrobenzene can be reduced to an amino group (-NH2) using reducing agents like iron and hydrochloric acid, or more commonly, using catalytic hydrogenation. This reaction produces aniline.
Alkylation: Similar to acylation, toluene can also undergo Friedel-Crafts alkylation reactions, where an alkyl group is introduced onto the benzene ring. Alkylation reactions also require a Lewis acid catalyst.
Esterification: Benzoic acid can undergo esterification reactions with 【alcohols|https://www.ambeed.com/alcohols.html】 in the presence of a catalyst, typically an acid catalyst like sulfuric acid. This reaction leads to the formation of benzoate 【esters|https://www.ambeed.com/esters.html】 and water.
