2,6-Dichlorophenyl isothiocyanate

Description:

2,6-Dichlorophenyl isothiocyanate is an organic compound characterized by its isothiocyanate functional group attached to a dichlorophenyl moiety. It typically appears as a yellow to brownish liquid or solid, depending on its purity and form. This compound is known for its pungent odor and is soluble in organic solvents such as acetone and chloroform, but has limited solubility in water. It is primarily used in chemical synthesis, particularly in the preparation of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The presence of chlorine atoms in the phenyl ring enhances its reactivity, making it a useful intermediate in organic synthesis. Additionally, 2,6-Dichlorophenyl isothiocyanate exhibits biological activity, which has led to its investigation in various fields, including medicinal chemistry and plant protection. However, it should be handled with care due to its potential toxicity and irritant properties. Proper safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment, are essential when working with this compound.

2,6-Dichlorophenylisothiocyanate is a chloride that is used to treat tuberculosis. It is a prodrug that is hydrolyzed in the body to form 2-amino-3-chloropyrazine and imidazoles which are active against Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium avium complex. 2,6-Dichlorophenylisothiocyanate can be administered orally as well as intravenously. It has been shown to have tuberculostatic activity in animal models of experimental tuberculosis. The mechanism of action for this drug is not fully understood, but it may be due to its ability to inhibit protein synthesis by binding to bacterial ribosomes.
