2,3-Dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone

Description:

2,3-Dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone, commonly referred to as DDQ, is a synthetic organic compound with notable characteristics. It appears as a dark red to brown crystalline solid and is primarily used as an oxidizing agent in organic synthesis. DDQ is known for its ability to facilitate the oxidation of alcohols to carbonyl compounds and can also be employed in the synthesis of various complex organic molecules. The compound is relatively stable under standard conditions but should be handled with care due to its potential toxicity and irritant properties. It is soluble in organic solvents such as dichloromethane and acetone, but insoluble in water. The presence of both chlorine and cyano groups contributes to its reactivity and makes it a valuable reagent in chemical transformations. As with many chemical substances, appropriate safety measures should be taken when handling DDQ, including the use of personal protective equipment and working in a well-ventilated area.
