Anisidine
Anisidine can refer to any of the three possible isomers of methoxyaniline: * ''o''-Anisidine (2-methoxyaniline) * ''m''-Anisidine (3-methoxyaniline) * ''p''-Anisidine (4-methoxyaniline), used in measuring anisidine value {{chemistry index ...

O-Anisidine
''o''-Anisidine (2-anisidine) is an organic compound with the formula CH3OC6H4NH2. A colorless liquid, commercial samples can appear yellow owing to air oxidation. It is one of three isomers of the methoxy-containing aniline derivative. Production and use It is prepared via methanolysis of 2-chloronitrobenzene: :NaOCH3 + ClC6H4NO2 → CH3OC6H4NO2 + NaCl The resulting ''o''-nitroanisole is reduced to ''o''-anisidine. ''o''-Anisidine is used in the manufacture of dyes. It is nitrated to give 4-nitroanisidine. It is also a precursor to ''o''-dianisidine. One special use is as a heartwood indicator. An acid solution of ''o''-anisidine is diazotized by adding a sodium nitrite solution. This mixture is applied to the wood and by reaction with polyphenols in the heartwood a reddish brown azo dye is formed. : Safety and environmental aspects ''o''-Anisidine is a dangerous pollutant from the production of dyes. It is listed as RCRA hazardous waste Hazardous waste is w ...

M-Anisidine
''m''-Anisidine is an organic compound with the formula CH3OC6H4NH2. A clear light yellow or amber color liquid, commercial samples can appear brown owing to air oxidation. It is one of three isomers of the methoxy-containing aniline Aniline is an organic compound with the formula C6 H5 NH2. Consisting of a phenyl group attached to an amino group, aniline is the simplest aromatic amine. It is an industrially significant commodity chemical, as well as a versatile starti ... derivative.
