Description

1-Chloro-3,5-dimethoxybenzene is an organic chemical compound that is used for the synthesis of other chemicals. It is a cross-coupling agent and a ligand in coordination chemistry. 1-Chloro-3,5-dimethoxybenzene has been shown to be unreactive in reactions with thionyl chloride or sulfuric acid. The chloro group on the benzoic acid derivative can be replaced by bromine or iodine to give 1,4-dibromobenzene and 3,5-diiodobenzene respectively. 1-Chloro-3,5-dimethoxybenzene can also be used as an analogously reactive but less toxic replacement for 1,2,4,5,-tetrachlorobenzene. This chemical has been isolated in yields of up to 97% when reacted with boronic acids or sulfinyle compounds.
