CAS 615-37-2

2-Iodotoluene

Description:

2-Iodotoluene, with the CAS number 615-37-2, is an aromatic organic compound characterized by the presence of an iodine atom attached to the second carbon of a toluene molecule. This compound has a molecular formula of C7H7I and features a benzene ring with a methyl group and an iodine substituent. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic aromatic odor. 2-Iodotoluene is known for its moderate solubility in organic solvents and limited solubility in water. It is utilized in various chemical synthesis processes, particularly in the production of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other organic compounds. The presence of the iodine atom makes it a useful reagent in nucleophilic substitution reactions and other transformations in organic chemistry. Additionally, 2-iodotoluene can undergo electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions, making it a versatile intermediate in synthetic organic chemistry. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested.
