2,3,6-Trichlorobenzaldehyde

Description:
2,3,6-Trichlorobenzaldehyde is an aromatic aldehyde characterized by the presence of three chlorine atoms substituted on a benzene ring at the 2, 3, and 6 positions, along with an aldehyde functional group (-CHO). This compound typically appears as a pale yellow to light brown solid and is known for its strong, pungent odor. It is sparingly soluble in water but more soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether. The presence of chlorine atoms enhances its reactivity, making it useful in various chemical syntheses, particularly in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, 2,3,6-Trichlorobenzaldehyde can participate in electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions due to the electron-withdrawing nature of the chlorine substituents. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks, including skin and respiratory irritation. Proper storage in a cool, dry place away from light is recommended to maintain its stability.
