Product Information

• Name: 2,3,5,6-Tetrachloropyridine
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Tetrachloropyridine is a chlorinating agent that produces 2,3,5,6-tetrachloropyridine by reacting with an inorganic acid. This reaction can be optimized by using sodium hydroxide solution and hydrochloric acid. The product obtained from this reaction is an activated form of tetrachloropyridine that has the ability to react with nucleophiles. Tetrachloropyridine is used as a precursor to produce substances such as hexachloroethane and penta-chlorophenol. This chemical is also useful for the analytical determination of hydrogen chloride and chloride ions in various organic compounds.
