1-Chloro-4-(chloromethyl)-2-methoxybenzene

Description:
1-Chloro-4-(chloromethyl)-2-methoxybenzene, also known by its CAS number 13726-18-6, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a chloromethyl group and a methoxy group attached to a benzene ring. This compound features a chloro substituent at the para position relative to the chloromethyl group, and a methoxy group at the ortho position. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and form. The presence of chlorine atoms contributes to its reactivity, making it a potential intermediate in various chemical syntheses, particularly in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The methoxy group enhances its solubility in organic solvents and may influence its electronic properties. As with many chlorinated compounds, it may pose environmental and health risks, necessitating careful handling and disposal. Its chemical behavior can be influenced by factors such as temperature, solvent, and the presence of other reagents, making it a compound of interest in synthetic organic chemistry.
