Introduction
3,4,5-Trichloronitrobenzene is an organic compound. The following is an introduction to its nature, use, manufacturing method and safety information:Quality:- Appearance: Colorless or light yellow crystalline solid.- Less soluble in water but higher in organic solvents.Use:- It can be used in the synthesis of other compounds, for example, for the preparation of 2-chloro-4,6-dinitrophenol, which has antioxidant and anti-aging effects in the rubber industry.Method:- The preparation of 3,4,5-trichloronitrobenzene usually consists of two steps: nitrification and chlorination. Nitro groups are introduced at positions 3, 4, and 5 of the benzene ring by nitrification, and then chlorine atoms are introduced on the hydrogen atom on the benzene ring by chlorination.- This involves dissolving benzene in concentrated nitric acid, followed by dilute sulfuric acid and heating to produce nitrobenzene. Then, ferrous chloride and hydrochloric acid are added to this nitrobenzene, which is subsequently heated to give 3,4,5-trichloronitrobenzene.Safety Information:- 3,4,5-Trichloronitrobenzene is a toxic compound that is harmful to human health and should be avoided from contact with skin, eyes, and inhaled gases.- Wear appropriate personal protective equipment such as chemical gloves, goggles, and protective masks during handling.- Store away from fire, away from light, dry and well-ventilated places.- Waste should be disposed of in accordance with local regulations to avoid environmental pollution.- When using or handling the compound, refer to the relevant Chemical Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for more detailed safety information.
