Product Application of Cupric nitrate trihydrate (CAS#10031-43-3)
Cupric nitrate trihydrate is a copper(II) salt of nitric acid with broad industrial and laboratory applications. One of its primary uses is as a precursor for the production of copper oxide, an important catalyst widely applied in organic chemistry.
It is also utilized in the textile industry and in metal polishing formulations. In educational settings, it serves as a reagent for demonstrating chemical voltaic cell reactions.
In organic synthesis, cupric nitrate can react with acetic anhydride to form an efficient nitrating agent for aromatic compounds. The hydrate form is capable of catalyzing the oxidative coupling of 2,6-dimethylphenol to generate polymers that are valuable engineering materials. The trihydrate form promotes solvent-free synthesis of 3-aminopropenones and 3-aminopropenoates, while the pentahydrate form is applied in the preparation of novel coordination polymers.
Additionally, it finds use in medical applications, insecticides, chemical analysis, and in the production of light-sensitive paper products.
