 |  | [Uses] 
 
 Methyl 5-nitro-2-furoate may be used in the synthesis of 5-nitro-2-furoylhydrazine and 5-nitro-2-furamide. |  | [Definition] 
 ChEBI: Methyl 5-nitro-2-furoate is a carboxylic ester. It is functionally related to a 2-furoic acid.
 |  | [General Description] 
 
 Methyl 5-nitro-2-furoate is a nitrofuran derivative. Its density, freezing point and refractive index have been evaluated. The reduction of methyl 5-nitro-2-furoate using milk xanthine oxidase has been reported to form methyl 5-hydroxylamino-2-furoate and methyl 5-amino-2-furoate. The utility of methyl 5-nitro-2-furoate as a matrix compound for matrix assisted ionization vacuum (MAIV) has been assessed using bovine insulin as an analyte. |
