3,4,6-Trichlorocatechol

Description:

3,4,6-Trichlorocatechol, with the CAS number 32139-72-3, is a chlorinated derivative of catechol, characterized by the presence of three chlorine atoms substituted at the 3, 4, and 6 positions of the benzene ring. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white crystalline solid and is soluble in organic solvents, with limited solubility in water. It exhibits properties typical of phenolic compounds, including the ability to form hydrogen bonds due to the hydroxyl groups present. 3,4,6-Trichlorocatechol is known for its potential applications in various fields, including as an intermediate in the synthesis of agrochemicals and pharmaceuticals. Additionally, it may exhibit biological activity, which can include antimicrobial or herbicidal properties. However, due to the presence of chlorine atoms, it may also pose environmental and health risks, necessitating careful handling and disposal. As with many chlorinated compounds, it is important to consider its reactivity and stability under different conditions.
