Isolation of 3-amino-4-nitrobenzyl acetate: evidence of an undisclosed impurity in 5-amino-2-nitrobenzoic acid

Yellow crystals of the title compound 3-amino-4-nitrobenzyl acetate, C9H10N2O4, were isolated from the reaction of acetic anhydride with (5-amino-2-nitrophenyl)methanol, prepared from reduction of commerically available 5-amino-2-nitrobenzoic acid with borane–THF. The molecule is essentially planar...
