1-Chloro-3-iodo-5-methylbenzene

Description:
1-Chloro-3-iodo-5-methylbenzene, also known as 3-Iodo-1-chloro-5-methylbenzene, is an aromatic compound characterized by the presence of a benzene ring substituted with a chlorine atom, an iodine atom, and a methyl group. The chlorine and iodine substituents are located at the 1 and 3 positions relative to each other, while the methyl group is at the 5 position. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its physical state at room temperature. It is relatively insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents, reflecting its hydrophobic nature due to the aromatic structure. The presence of halogen atoms (chlorine and iodine) contributes to its reactivity, making it useful in various chemical synthesis processes, including the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, the compound may exhibit interesting electronic properties due to the electron-withdrawing effects of the halogens, influencing its reactivity in electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as halogenated compounds can be hazardous.
