Benzenamine, 3-chloro-4-[4-(1-methylethyl)phenoxy]-

Description:

Benzenamine, 3-chloro-4-[4-(1-methylethyl)phenoxy]- is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic amine structure, which includes a benzene ring substituted with a chloro group and a phenoxy group. The presence of the chloro substituent at the 3-position and the isopropyl group at the para position of the phenoxy moiety contributes to its unique chemical properties. This compound is typically a solid at room temperature and may exhibit moderate solubility in organic solvents, while being less soluble in water due to its hydrophobic characteristics. It may participate in various chemical reactions, including electrophilic aromatic substitution, due to the electron-donating effects of the isopropyl group and the electron-withdrawing nature of the chloro group. Additionally, benzenamines can exhibit biological activity, making them of interest in pharmaceutical and agrochemical research. Safety data should be consulted for handling and potential toxicity, as with many amines and halogenated compounds.
