1-Methoxy-2,4-dinitrobenzene（Cat No.:M068764）, also known as 2,4-dinitro anisole (DNAN), is an organic compound used primarily in the manufacturing of explosives. It features a benzene ring substituted with methoxy and nitro groups, which contribute to its stability and sensitivity characteristics compared to traditional nitroaromatic explosives like TNT. DNAN is favored in newer munitions formulations because it offers lower toxicity and enhanced performance. Additionally, it is utilized in dye manufacturing and as an intermediate in organic synthesis. Its ability to undergo further chemical transformations makes it valuable in various industrial applications.
