Dinitroaniline is a chemical compound that belongs to the class of anilines, which are organic compounds derived from benzene. It is characterized by the presence of two nitro groups attached to the aniline structure. This compound is primarily used as a herbicide in agriculture, helping to control the growth of unwanted plants. In addition to its use in herbicides, dinitroaniline is also utilized in the production of dyes and other chemical products. Its effectiveness in inhibiting plant growth makes it valuable in crop management, although its use is regulated due to potential environmental impacts.
