2-Nitrobenzaldehyde is an organic compound with the formula O2NC6H4CHO. It is one of three isomers of nitrobenzaldehyde. It contains a nitro group adjacent to the formyl group.10.1002/14356007.a03_463.pub2 Benzaldehyde Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry 2011 Brühne Friedrich Wright Elaine 978-3-527-30385-4
Synthesis
The nitration of benzaldehyde produces mostly 3-nitrobenzaldehyde. Partly for this reason, 2-nitrobenzaldehyde is prepared by indirect routes.10.1002/14356007.a03_463.pub2 Benzaldehyde Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry 2011 Brühne Friedrich Wright Elaine 978-3-527-30385-4 The main routes to nitrobenzaldehyde begin with the nitration of styrene or cinnamic acid followed by the conversions of the resulting 2-nitrostyrene and 2-nitrocinnamic acids, respectively. Cinnamaldehyde can also be nitrated in high-yield to 2-nitrocinnamaldehyde.Org. Synth. 1953 33 60 10.15227/orgsyn.033.0060 free o-Nitrocinnamaldehyde Robert E. Buckles, M. Peter Bellis This compound is then oxidized to 2-nitrocinnamic acid, which is decarboxylated to the 2-nitrostyrene. The vinyl group can be oxidized in a number of different ways to yield 2-nitrobenzaldehyde.Feng Bo Hou Zhenshan Wang Xiangrui Hu Yu Li Huan Qiao Yunxiang 2009-09-01 Selective aerobic oxidation of styrene to benzaldehyde catalyzed by water-soluble palladium(II) complex in water https://pubs.rsc.org/en/content/articlelanding/2009/gc/b900807a Green Chemistry en 11 9 1446–1452 10.1039/B900807A 1463-9270 subscription

Alternatively, 2-nitrotoluene as formed above can be halogenated to a 2-nitrobenzyl halide followed by oxidation with DMSO and sodium bicarbonate to yield 2-nitrobenzaldehyde, which is subsequently purified with the creation of a bisulfite adduct.Process for the Preparation of 2-Nitrobenzaldehyde https://patents.google.com/patent/US4297519 2010-10-18
Uses
2-Nitrobenzaldehyde is an intermediate in an early route to indigo, a water-insoluble dye commonly used to dye jeans and other fabrics. In the Baeyer–Drewsen indigo synthesis, 2-nitrobenzaldehyde condenses with acetone in basic aqueous solution to yield indigo in a one-pot synthesishttp://www.chem.missouri.edu/chem1100/Indigo%20synthesis.doc Indigo Synthesis 2009-07-18 https://web.archive.org/web/20110720000154/http://www.chem.missouri.edu/chem1100/Indigo%20synthesis.doc 2011-07-20 dead http://courses.chem.psu.edu/chem36/Chem36H/IndivExpt1/863%20Indigo.pdf Synthesis of Indigo and Vat Dyeing 2009-07-18 https://web.archive.org/web/20110720032713/http://courses.chem.psu.edu/chem36/Chem36H/IndivExpt1/863%20Indigo.pdf 2011-07-20 dead The method was abandoned in the early part of the 20th century, being replaced by routes from aniline.https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/book/10.1002/14356007 Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry 2003-03-11 Wiley 978-3-527-30385-4 Wiley-VCH 1 en 10.1002/14356007.a14_149.pub2 Indigo and Indigo Colorants

Given its two relatively reactive groups, 2-nitrobenzaldehyde is a potential starting material for other compounds. Substituted 2-nitrobenzaldehydes can also be used to yield other important compounds based on indigo, such as indigo carmine.
