About this product

Nitro Benzene (nitrobenzene, C6H5NO2, CAS 98-95-3) is a yellow aromatic liquid also known as oil of mirbane or nitrobenzol. Its dominant industrial use is as feedstock for aniline — which in turn feeds rubber chemicals, dyes and pigments — and it also serves as a solvent and intermediate in dye and pharmaceutical synthesis. We stock Industrial Grade material at 99.9% min by GC and dispatch it in drums and tankers from our Redhills warehouse in Chennai across South India.
