4-NITROPHENYL ACETATE Usage And Synthesis
Chemical Properties    off-white or beige powder
Uses    4-Nitrophenyl Acetate have been used as a substrate to study for the enzymatic activity of Carbonic Anhydrase III isolated from bovine skeletal muscle.
Definition    ChEBI: An acetate ester resulting from the formal condensation of the hydroxy group of 4-nitrophenol with the carboxy group of acetic acid.
Synthesis Reference(s)    Synthesis, p. 991, 1981 DOI: 10.1055/s-1981-29674
Safety Profile    Poison by intravenous route. Whenheated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of NOx.
Purification Methods    Recrystallise the ester from absolute EtOH [Moss et al. J Am Chem Soc 108 5520 1986]. [Beilstein 6 IV 1298.]
