Product Information
- 5-Chloro-3-Picoline
3-Chloro-5-methylpyridine is an aryl chloride that can be synthesized by chlorination of 3-chloropyridine. The chloride ion in this molecule chelates with the silicon atom, forming a bimetallic system. This compound has been used as a precursor for the synthesis of benzoxazoles and heteroaryl groups. It also has been used as an oxidizing agent to yield other compounds. 3-Chloro-5-methylpyridine is used in the preparation of organometallic compounds, such as tetrachlorides, which are useful in the production of plastics and other industrial chemicals.
