Common Name1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene
Description1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene is a synthetic organic compound belonging to the class of nitroaromatic compounds. Its chemical structure features a benzene ring substituted with one chlorine atom and two nitro groups at the 2 and 4 positions, which contributes to its reactivity and potential as a metabolic substrate. In biological contexts, 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene (DNCB) has been employed in experimental models, such as BALB/c mice, to assess inflammatory responses (PMID:41029337 ). Additionally, it serves as a substrate in enzyme kinetics studies, particularly in evaluating the activity of glutathione S-transferases, where it has been shown that CaGSTU1-1 exhibits superior hydroperoxidase activity and thermal stability when interacting with model substrates, including cumene hydroperoxide and 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene (PMID:41022292 ). This compound's reactivity and role in enzymatic pathways underscore its significance in biochemical research and toxicology.
