Methyl nitroacetate is used in the synthesis of aromatic and heteroaromatic linear (E)-alfa-nitro-arylpentenoates. It is also used to prepare phenyliodonium ylide. Further, it is utilized in the highly enantioselective and diastereoselective copper(I)-catalyzed cyclopropanation of alkenes. In addition to this, it is employed in the production of methyl (Z)-2-nitro-3-(4-nitrophenyl)-2-propenoate through reaction with 4-nitrobenzylideneaniline.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
