Description

2',4'-Dichloroacetophenone is a chemical intermediate used in the treatment of wastewater. It reacts with chloride ions to form 2,4-dichloro-5-chlorobenzene-1,3-diol (2,4-DCD) and dichloroacetic acid (DCAA). DCDA is an inhibitor of the synthesis of triazole antifungal agents. In addition to its use as an intermediate, 2',4'-Dichloroacetophenone has been shown to be an effective inhibitor of the enzyme carbonyl reductase and can also serve as a precursor for the synthesis of other chemicals. The reaction products are geometric isomers that differ only in their orientation about the double bond. This product's molecular weight is 188.27 g/mol and its melting point is 53 °C.
