2,6-Dichloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)aniline is used in the synthesis of GABA receptor antagonists and insecticides.
Using 4-chlorotrifluoromethylbenzene as raw material, 2,6-dichloro-4-trifluoromethylaniline was prepared through two-step reaction of amination and chlorination.
light yellow low melting crystalline mass or
2,6-Dichloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)aniline may be employed for the synthesis of 1-[2,6-di-chloro-4-(tri-fluoro-methyl)-phenyl]-5-[(4-nitro-phenyl)-methyl-ene-imino]-1H-pyrazole-3-carbo-nitrile.
