Cannabis Compound Identification
Common Name2-Nitropropane
Description2-Nitropropane, also known as i-C3H7NO2, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as c-nitro compounds. C-nitro compounds are compounds having the nitro group, -NO2 (free valence on nitrogen), which is attached to carbon. 2-Nitropropane is a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). 2-Nitropropane is a potentially toxic compound. It is a secondary nitroalkane with propane being the carbon backbone, on which a hydrogen at position 2 has been replaced by a nitro group. 2-Nitropropane is a colorless liquid and it is used a solvent. 2-Nitropropane is produced by the high-temperature vapor-phase nitration of propane and usually contains 1-nitropropane as an impurity. 2-Nitropropane is also produced as a volatile by-product that can be captured during Leonard's ring-closure hydantoin preparation. 2-Nitropropane is used as a solvent or additive in inks, paints, adhesives, varnishes, polymers, resins, fuel, and coatings. It is also used as a feedstock for other industrial chemicals, and in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals such as phentermine, chlorphentermine, and teclozan. It serves as an oxidant in the Hass–Bender oxidation process. 2-Nitropropane has been detected as a volatile component of seized cannabis samples (PMID: 26657499 ) and it is also a constituent of tobacco smoke (PMID: 21556207 ). Based on studies in animals, it is reasonably anticipated to be a human carcinogen (PMID: 2038276 ) and it is listed as an IARC Group 2B carcinogen.
