White crystalline powder.

Simple aromatic halogenated organic compounds, such as 2,4,ALPHA,ALPHA,ALPHA-PENTACHLOROTOLUENE(13014-18-1), are very unreactive. Reactivity generally decreases with increased degree of substitution of halogen for hydrogen atoms. Materials in this group may be incompatible with strong oxidizing and reducing agents. Also, they may be incompatible with many amines, nitrides, azo/diazo compounds, alkali metals, and epoxides.

This chemical may be sensitive to exposure to moisture. Insoluble in water.

Flash point data for this chemical are not available. 2,4,ALPHA,ALPHA,ALPHA-PENTACHLOROTOLUENE is probably combustible.

2,4-Dichlorobenzotrichloride is used in the synthesis of aromatic acid chlorides.

Mutation data reported. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic vapors of Clí.
