2,5-Dimethoxybenzy chloride

Description:
2,5-Dimethoxybenzy chloride, with the CAS number 3840-27-5, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of two methoxy groups (-OCH3) attached to a benzene ring, along with a chlorine substituent. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid and is known for its reactivity due to the presence of the chlorine atom, which can participate in nucleophilic substitution reactions. The methoxy groups enhance the electron density of the aromatic ring, influencing its reactivity and making it a useful intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The compound is generally soluble in organic solvents, such as dichloromethane and ether, but has limited solubility in water. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this substance, as it may pose health risks through inhalation or skin contact. Proper storage in a cool, dry place away from light is recommended to maintain its stability.
