2-Chloro-1,4-dimethoxybenzene

Description:

2-Chloro-1,4-dimethoxybenzene, with the CAS number 2100-42-7, is an organic compound belonging to the class of chlorinated aromatic compounds. It features a benzene ring substituted with two methoxy groups (-OCH3) at the 1 and 4 positions and a chlorine atom at the 2 position. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on temperature and purity. It is known for its moderate solubility in organic solvents and limited solubility in water. The presence of both electron-donating methoxy groups and an electron-withdrawing chlorine atom influences its reactivity, making it a useful intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, 2-chloro-1,4-dimethoxybenzene can undergo various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitution and electrophilic aromatic substitution, due to the functional groups present. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested.
