Dichloroglyoxime

Description:

Dichloroglyoxime, with the CAS number 2038-44-0, is an organic compound characterized by its oxime functional groups and the presence of two chlorine atoms. It is typically a white to light yellow crystalline solid that is sparingly soluble in water but more soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone. The compound is known for its ability to form complexes with various metal ions, making it useful in analytical chemistry, particularly in the detection and separation of nickel and other transition metals. Dichloroglyoxime exhibits moderate stability under standard conditions but can decompose upon exposure to strong acids or bases. Its chemical structure features two carbonyl groups that are converted to oximes, contributing to its reactivity and coordination properties. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks if ingested or inhaled, and appropriate protective equipment should be used. Overall, dichloroglyoxime serves as an important reagent in both synthetic and analytical applications within the field of chemistry.

Dichloroglyoxime is an antimicrobial agent that is structurally related to glyoxal. It has a redox potential of -0.4 V and can be used to generate hypochlorous acid in the presence of sodium carbonate. Dichloroglyoxime has been shown to inhibit the growth of Streptococcus faecalis by reacting with hydroxyl groups on the bacterial cell wall, forming trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) and hydroxyl ions. The TFA reacts with amino groups on the cell wall, leading to cross-linking and inactivation of the peptidoglycan layer. Dichloroglyoxime also chlorinates proteins through reactions with nitrogen atoms and hydrochloric acid (HCl).
