2,6-Dichlorobenzyl chloride

Description:

2,6-Dichlorobenzyl chloride is an organic compound characterized by its chlorinated benzyl structure. It features two chlorine atoms positioned at the 2 and 6 positions on the benzene ring, which significantly influences its chemical properties and reactivity. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive aromatic odor. It is moderately soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. 2,6-Dichlorobenzyl chloride is primarily used as an intermediate in the synthesis of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its reactivity is largely attributed to the presence of the benzyl chloride functional group, which can undergo nucleophilic substitution reactions. Additionally, the chlorine substituents can enhance the compound's biological activity and influence its interaction with biological systems. As with many chlorinated compounds, it is important to handle 2,6-Dichlorobenzyl chloride with care due to potential toxicity and environmental concerns associated with chlorinated organic compounds.

2,6-Dichloro benzyl chloride

CAS: 2014-83-7

2,6-Dichloro benzyl chloride is a dichlorobenzyl that has been shown to have antitubercular activity. It reacts with chlorine in the presence of a catalyst to form 2,6-dichlorobenzaldehyde and hydrogen chloride. This reaction yields an excellent yield of 70% or more. The antitubercular activity of 2,6-dichlorobenzyl chloride is due to its ability to inhibit the growth rate of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Studies have shown that this compound inhibits the synthesis of nucleic acids by inhibiting RNA and DNA synthesis in bacteria, which prevents protein synthesis and cell division.
