3,3′-Dichloro-4,4′-diaminodiphenylmethane

Description:
3,3′-Dichloro-4,4′-diaminodiphenylmethane, commonly referred to as MOCA (an acronym derived from its chemical name), is an organic compound characterized by its structure, which includes two aromatic rings connected by a methylene bridge, with two amino groups and two chlorine substituents. This compound is primarily used in the production of polyurethane elastomers and as a curing agent in epoxy resins. MOCA is known for its potential health hazards, including being a possible carcinogen, which necessitates careful handling and adherence to safety regulations in industrial applications. It is typically a solid at room temperature, exhibiting low solubility in water but higher solubility in organic solvents. The compound's reactivity is influenced by the presence of the amino and chloro groups, making it useful in various chemical reactions, particularly in the synthesis of other organic compounds. Due to its toxicological profile, exposure limits and protective measures are critical when working with MOCA in laboratory or industrial settings.
