2-Amino-5-chlorobenzophenone
1. Basic Product Information
Product Name: 2-Amino-5-chlorobenzophenone
CAS Number: 719-59-5
Molecular Formula: C13H10ClNO
Molecular Weight: 231.68
Synonyms: (2-Amino-5-chlorophenyl)phenylmethanone, 5-Chloro-2-aminobenzophenone
Product Category: Benzodiazepine pharmaceutical intermediate, fine aromatic synthetic raw material, organic synthesis building block
2. Physical and Chemical Properties
Physical Indicators
- Appearance: Pale yellow to off-white crystalline powder
- Odor: Mild aromatic odor
- Solubility: Soluble in ethanol, methanol, chloroform, ethyl acetate and toluene; slightly soluble in hot water; insoluble in cold water and aliphatic hydrocarbons
- Melting Point: 98–102 °C
- Density (20 °C): 1.27 g/cm3
- Hygroscopicity: Non-hygroscopic under sealed dry storage
- Aqueous Stability: Stable under neutral and weakly acidic conditions; prone to oxidation and darkening under strong alkaline heating or prolonged air exposure
Chemical Characteristics
- Molecular Structure: Diphenyl ketone skeleton with amino group at ortho position and chlorine substituent at para position of the amino benzene ring
- Core Functional Mechanism: Key starting material for cyclization reaction to synthesize benzodiazepine ring system; amino and carbonyl groups support condensation, cyclization and halogen substitution reactions
- Photostability: Light-sensitive; long-term UV irradiation generates dark oxidative impurities
- Thermal Stability: Stable below 80 °C; high-temperature decomposition releases irritating chlorine-containing aromatic fumes
- Chemical Compatibility: Compatible with anhydrous polar and non-polar organic solvents; incompatible with strong oxidants, concentrated strong alkalis and heavy metal salts
3. Main Application Fields
- Core Application: Benzodiazepine Drug Intermediate
Critical raw material for synthesizing clonazepam, lorazepam, nitrazepam and other sedative, anxiolytic and anticonvulsant benzodiazepine APIs - Fine Chemical Synthetic Intermediate
Precursor for manufacturing fluorescent dyes, organic pigments and aromatic amine derivatives - Laboratory Organic Synthesis Reagent
Aromatic amino ketone substrate for cyclization, reduction and nucleophilic substitution reaction research
4. Platform Category & Product Group Guidance
1) Domestic B2B Platform Category
Recommended Path: Organic Intermediates / Pharmaceutical Intermediates
Reason: Core aromatic intermediate for benzodiazepine psychoactive drug synthesis
2) English Product Group Dropdown Options
Recommended Selection: Basic Organic Chemicals
Do NOT solely categorize as finished pharmaceutical chemicals; it is a synthetic intermediate rather than finished API
3. Standard Foreign Trade Packaging Specification
1kg aluminum foil vacuum bag for lab synthesis trials; 25kg double PE-lined light-proof fiber drum for pharmaceutical mass production
