1,4-Bis(chloromethyl)-2,5-dimethylbenzene

Description:
1,4-Bis(chloromethyl)-2,5-dimethylbenzene, with the CAS number 6298-72-2, is an organic compound characterized by its chloromethyl and dimethyl substituents on a benzene ring. This compound features two chloromethyl groups attached to the 1 and 4 positions of the benzene ring, while the 2 and 5 positions are occupied by methyl groups. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its physical state at room temperature. The presence of chloromethyl groups makes it a reactive compound, particularly in nucleophilic substitution reactions, which can lead to the formation of various derivatives. Its structure suggests potential applications in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of polymers or as an intermediate in the synthesis of other chemical compounds. However, due to the presence of chlorine, it may pose environmental and health risks, necessitating careful handling and disposal. As with many chlorinated compounds, it is important to consider its reactivity and potential toxicity in various applications.
