General description<\/h3>\n
4-Nitrophenol is a phenolic compound present as a chemical intermediate and breakdown product during the production of organophosphorus insecticide derivatives of parathion. It is an intermediate during the synthesis of paracetamol.\u00a04-Nitrophenol is a chromogenic catalytic by product of the synthetic substrate 4-nitrophenyl phosphate. It is majorly used as a reference standard in alkaline phosphatase assay.\u00a04-Nitrophenol is nonbiodegradable and its derivatives are used for herbicide and fungicide production.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
