2,3-Dichlorotoluene

Description:

2,3-Dichlorotoluene is an aromatic compound characterized by the presence of two chlorine atoms and a methyl group attached to a benzene ring. Its molecular formula is C7H6Cl2, indicating that it contains seven carbon atoms, six hydrogen atoms, and two chlorine atoms. This compound exists in several isomeric forms, with the 2,3-configuration denoting the specific positions of the chlorine substituents on the toluene ring. 2,3-Dichlorotoluene is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic aromatic odor. It is moderately soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water. The compound is used in various industrial applications, including as an intermediate in the synthesis of other chemicals and in the production of pesticides and dyes. Due to the presence of chlorine, it may exhibit toxicity and environmental persistence, necessitating careful handling and disposal. Safety measures should be observed to minimize exposure, as it may pose health risks upon inhalation or skin contact.

2,3-Dichlorotoluene

CAS: 32768-54-0

2,3-Dichlorotoluene is a chemical intermediate that is used in the production of dyes and pharmaceuticals. 2,3-Dichlorotoluene can be synthesized from sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) by reaction with an aryl chloride. The product is usually purified by distillation or recrystallization. The resulting product has two isomers: ortho-chlorotoluene and para-chlorotoluene. 2,3-Dichlorotoluene reacts with peroxide to form chlorine dioxide.
