:2,6-Dichloro-3-methylbenzaldehyde
Description:
2,6-Dichloro-3-methylbenzaldehyde is an aromatic aldehyde characterized by the presence of two chlorine atoms and a methyl group on a benzene ring, specifically at the 2 and 6 positions relative to the aldehyde functional group located at the 1 position. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and temperature. It has a distinct aromatic odor, common to many benzaldehyde derivatives. The presence of chlorine substituents enhances its reactivity, making it useful in various chemical synthesis applications, including the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The compound is moderately soluble in organic solvents and exhibits low solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic structure. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this substance, as it may pose health risks through inhalation or skin contact. Overall, 2,6-Dichloro-3-methylbenzaldehyde is a valuable intermediate in organic synthesis, with potential applications in the development of more complex chemical entities.
