2,6-Dichlorobenzaldehyde

Description:

2,6-Dichlorobenzaldehyde is an aromatic aldehyde characterized by the presence of two chlorine substituents at the 2 and 6 positions of the benzene ring, along with an aldehyde functional group (-CHO) at the first position. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or crystalline solid with a distinctive odor. It is moderately soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic structure. 2,6-Dichlorobenzaldehyde is known for its applications in organic synthesis, particularly as an intermediate in the production of various pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and dyes. It exhibits reactivity typical of aldehydes, including undergoing oxidation to form carboxylic acids and participating in nucleophilic addition reactions. Safety considerations include handling it with care, as it may cause irritation to the skin, eyes, and respiratory tract. Proper storage in a cool, dry place away from light is recommended to maintain its stability.

2,6-Dichlorobenzaldehyde

CAS: 83-38-5

2,6-Dichlorobenzaldehyde is a nucleophilic compound that has the ability to form hydrogen bonds. It reacts with phosphorus pentachloride to produce 2-chloro-4,6-dichlorobenzene. 2,6-Dichlorobenzaldehyde can be used in the synthesis of β-unsaturated ketones and anticancer drugs such as aziridines. It is also used as a precursor for coordination complexes. This compound is an efficient method for making nitrogen nucleophiles, which are important in chain reactions and the production of polymers. The 2,6-dichlorobenzaldehyde molecule contains two chiral centers that give rise to four stereoisomers. X-ray diffraction data shows that this molecule exists as a mixture of these four isomers.
