2-Chlorobiphenyl

Description:
2-Chlorobiphenyl, with the CAS number 2051-60-7, is an organic compound that belongs to the class of chlorinated biphenyls. It consists of two phenyl rings connected by a single bond, with a chlorine atom substituted at the second position of one of the rings. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow solid at room temperature and is known for its hydrophobic nature, making it insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. 2-Chlorobiphenyl exhibits moderate thermal stability and can undergo various chemical reactions, including electrophilic substitution and nucleophilic displacement. It is primarily used in industrial applications, including as a dielectric fluid in electrical equipment and as a heat transfer medium. However, like other chlorinated biphenyls, it raises environmental and health concerns due to its persistence in the environment and potential toxicity. Regulatory measures often restrict its use and promote the safe handling and disposal of materials containing this compound.
