CAS 80902-01-8

haloquinone

Description:

Haloquinone refers to a class of chemical compounds that are derived from quinones, which are cyclic organic compounds containing two carbonyl groups. The specific compound with the CAS number 80902-01-8 is a halogenated derivative of quinone, characterized by the presence of halogen atoms (such as chlorine, bromine, or iodine) attached to the quinone structure. These compounds typically exhibit unique chemical reactivity due to the electron-withdrawing nature of the halogen substituents, which can influence their behavior in various chemical reactions, including electrophilic substitution and redox processes. Haloquinones are often used in organic synthesis and can serve as intermediates in the production of dyes, pharmaceuticals, and agrochemicals. Additionally, they may possess biological activity, making them of interest in medicinal chemistry. The stability, solubility, and reactivity of haloquinones can vary significantly depending on the specific halogen and the position of substitution on the quinone ring.
