This compound is a specialized organic intermediate featuring a nitro-substituted benzylidene moiety linked to a methoxyethyl acetoacetate backbone. Molecular Formula: C13H15NO6; CAS No.: 24490-87-3. It is typically synthesized via Knoevenagel condensation between 3-nitrobenzaldehyde and ethyl 2-methoxyacetoacetate under basic catalysis, serving as a key scaffold for heterocyclic synthesis.
Store in a cool, dry, ventilated area away from oxidizers. Handle with appropriate PPE due to potential skin irritation and toxicity of nitro compounds. Avoid inhalation of dust or vapors during processing.
