2,5-Dichlorobenzonitrile is a chemical compound that contains a nitrile group. It is used as an intermediate in organic synthesis, as well as for the production of various pharmaceuticals and pesticides. 2,5-Dichlorobenzonitrile is oxidized to form 2,5-dichlorophenol which can be further converted to 2,5-dichloroquinone. This redox cycle is reversible and can be used to synthesize other compounds. The reaction time of this process is about one hour at room temperature. Maleate has been shown to inhibit the hepatic metabolism of 2,5-Dichlorobenzonitrile. This may lead to accumulation of 2,5-Dichlorobenzonitrile in the liver and potentially cause hepatitis or even liver cancer. Chloromethylation of 2,5-Dichlorobenzonitrile leads to the formation of chlor
