Chemical Properties
yellow flakes
Uses
2,5-Dichloronitrobenzene is a reagent used in the synthesis of antitrypanosomal, antileishmanial and antimalarial agents. Also it is used in the synthesis of lysophosphatidic acid acyltransferase-β in
hibitors.
Uses
2,5-Dichloronitrobenzene is a reagent used in the synthesis of antitrypanosomal, antileishmanial and antimalarial agents. Also it is used in the synthesis of lysophosphatidic acid acyltransferase-β inhibitors.
Production Methods
Nitration of 1,4-dichlorobenzene with mixed acid at 35 – 65 ℃ results in a 98 % yield of essentially pure 2,5-Dichloronitrobenzene.
Purification Methods
Crystallise the nitrobenzene from absolute EtOH. [Beilstein 5 IV 726.]
