Description:2-Chloroquinoline is a heterocyclic aromatic compound characterized by a quinoline structure with a chlorine atom substituted at the second position. Its molecular formula is C9H6ClN, and it features a bicyclic system composed of a benzene ring fused to a pyridine ring. This compound is typically a pale yellow to light brown liquid or solid, depending on its purity and form. 2-Chloroquinoline is known for its potential applications in pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of antimalarial and antibacterial agents, due to its ability to interact with biological targets. It exhibits moderate solubility in organic solvents and is relatively stable under standard conditions. However, it can undergo reactions typical of both aromatic compounds and halogenated compounds, such as nucleophilic substitution and electrophilic aromatic substitution. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this substance, 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.
