2,6-Dichlorobenzaldehyde | 83-38-5

Description :

Overview of 2,6-Dichlorobenzaldehyde

2,6-Dichlorobenzaldehyde is an aromatic organic compound containing two chlorine atoms substituted at the 2 and 6 positions of the benzene ring and an aldehyde group. It is a transparent or off-white crystalline solid with a pungent odor. The compound is used extensively in the production of agrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, dyes, fragrances, and other components. It is highly reactive due to the effect of electron-drawing the chlorine atoms. This makes it worthwhile for the future functionality of chemical synthesis.

Applications of 2,6-Dichlorobenzaldehyde

Pharmaceuticals: Utilized as the construction block to aid in the production of active components of pharmaceuticals (APIs) as well as fine chemical compounds. Agrochemicals are used as intermediates in the manufacturing of herbicides, pesticides, and fungicides.

Dyes and Pigments: Used in the production of the azo dyes as well as coloring agents, as well as specialty dyes and pigments, for printing and textiles.

Fragrance Industry: Used in the preparation of aromatic aldehydes and intermediates for perfumes and flavor enhancers.

Safety and Handling Guidelines

• Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated location in tightly sealed containers.

• Keep away from potent oxidizing agents and direct sunlight.

• Combustible solids avoid heat and open flame.

• Use dry chemical, CO₂, or foam extinguishers if needed.

• Ensure adequate ventilation during handling to avoid inhalation of dust or vapors.

• Use protective gloves, goggles, and a dust mask in industrial settings to prevent exposure to hazardous materials.
