Benzoyl Hydrazine(CAT: R058373) is an organic compound with the molecular formula C₇H₈N₂O, consisting of a benzoyl group (C₆H₅CO–) linked to a hydrazine moiety (–NHNH₂). It appears as a white to off-white crystalline solid and is moderately soluble in polar solvents like ethanol and methanol. Benzoyl hydrazine is widely used as a building block in the synthesis of heterocyclic compounds, pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and polymeric materials. Its reactive hydrazide functional group allows it to undergo condensation reactions with aldehydes and ketones, making it valuable in the formation of hydrazones and other derivatives. It also finds applications in coordination chemistry and analytical studies.
