Nitromethane is the simplest organic nitro compound. At room temperature, it is colorless, oily, transparent liquid with weak aromatic smell, with large polarity, flammable, toxic and explosive. It can be used as fuel. It is miscible with ethanol, acetone and ether. It is a good solvent and extractant. At the same time, due to nitro group α- Hydrogen has strong activity, so nitromethane is also a common raw material in chemical industry and organic synthesis, which is used to make drugs, pesticides, explosives, dyes and fibers.
