Phenol, 2-chloro-4-[(4-chloro-2-methylphenyl)azo]-

Description:

Phenol, 2-chloro-4-[(4-chloro-2-methylphenyl)azo]- is an azo compound characterized by the presence of both phenolic and azo functional groups. The structure features a phenolic ring substituted with a chlorine atom and an azo linkage (-N=N-) connecting to another aromatic ring, which is also chlorinated and contains a methyl group. This compound typically exhibits properties associated with both phenols and azo dyes, such as potential colorimetric characteristics due to the azo group, which can impart vivid colors. It may also display moderate solubility in organic solvents and limited solubility in water, depending on the specific substituents and their positions on the aromatic rings. The presence of chlorine and methyl groups can influence its reactivity, stability, and potential applications in dyeing, pigments, or as intermediates in organic synthesis. As with many azo compounds, it is essential to handle this substance with care due to potential toxicity and environmental concerns associated with azo dyes.
