2',4'-Dichloroacetophenone
1. Basic Product Information
Product Name: 2',4'-Dichloroacetophenone
CAS Number: 2234-16-4
Molecular Formula: C8H6Cl2O
Molecular Weight: 189.04
Synonyms: 1-(2,4-Dichlorophenyl)ethan-1-one
Product Category: Aromatic fine chemical, pharmaceutical & pesticide intermediate, organic synthesis raw material
2. Physical and Chemical Properties
Physical Parameters
- Appearance: White to pale yellow crystalline solid
- Odor: Mild aromatic ketone odor
- Solubility: Soluble in ethanol, ethyl acetate, chloroform, DMF, toluene; slightly soluble in hot methanol; insoluble in cold water and petroleum ether
- Melting Point: 32–35 °C
- Density (20 °C): 1.32 g/cm3
- Hygroscopicity: Non-hygroscopic under sealed storage
- Aqueous Stability: Stable in neutral cold water
Chemical Characteristics
- Molecular Structure: Benzene ring substituted with acetyl group at C1, two chlorine atoms at ortho and para positions; contains active carbonyl and aryl chloride functional groups
- Reactivity of Carbonyl Group: Supports aldol condensation, imination, reduction, halogenation for molecular derivatization
- Aromatic Ring Modification: Aryl chloride can participate in Suzuki coupling, hydrolysis and other cross-coupling reactions
- Photostability: Slightly light-sensitive; long-term UV exposure generates trace dechlorination impurities and darkens the product
- Thermal Stability: Stable below 30 °C; slow decomposition occurs above 100 °C, releasing irritating hydrogen chloride fumes
- Chemical Compatibility: Compatible with anhydrous polar aprotic solvents; incompatible with strong oxidants and concentrated strong alkali
3. Main Application Fields
- Core Application: Pharmaceutical Synthetic Intermediate
Key building block for anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and antiparasitic APIs; used to construct halogenated aromatic heterocyclic skeletons via condensation and cyclization reactions - Pesticide & Fungicide Raw Material
Precursor for high-efficiency halogenated bactericides and insecticides for crop protection - Laboratory Organic Synthesis Reagent
Standard substrate for cross-coupling, carbonyl condensation and aromatic functionalization research - Azo Dye Precursor
Raw material for high light-fastness textile azo dyes and color fixing agents
4. Platform Category & Product Group Selection Guide
1) Domestic B2B Platform Category
Recommended Path: Organic Intermediates / Organic Intermediates
Reason: It is a halogenated aromatic ketone fine chemical intermediate, suitable for general organic intermediate classification.
2) English Product Group Dropdown Options
Recommended Selection: Basic Organic Chemicals
Do not select Pharmaceutical Chemicals; it is a general synthetic intermediate rather than human medicine bulk drug.
3. Standard Foreign Trade Packaging Specification
1kg aluminum foil vacuum bag for lab samples; 25kg fiber drum lined with double PE plastic bags for bulk orders; customized packaging specifications are available upon request
