6-Chloro-2-picoline（CAS# 18368-63-3)introduction
6-Chloro-2-methylpyridine is an organic compound. The following is an introduction to its nature, use, manufacturing methods and safety information:
Quality:
6-Chloro-2-methylpyridine is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a peculiar odor. It is soluble in organic solvents such as alcohols and ethers at room temperature, but poorly soluble in water. It has moderate volatility and low vapor pressure.
Use:
6-Chloro-2-methylpyridine has a variety of uses in the chemical industry. It is often used as a reaction reagent in organic synthesis, participating in chemical reactions and as a catalyst. It can also be used as a raw material for plant protection agents and insecticides, and has a good killing effect on some pests.
Method:
The preparation method of 6-chloro-2-methylpyridine is usually carried out by reacting chlorine gas in 2-methylpyridine. First, 2-methylpyridine is dissolved in an appropriate amount of solvent, and then chlorine gas is slowly introduced, and the temperature and reaction time of the reaction are controlled at the same time, and finally the target product is distilled and purified.
Safety Information:
6-Chloro-2-methylpyridine is irritating and corrosive to the skin and eyes, so care should be taken to avoid contact when using it. Please wear appropriate protective gloves, glasses and protective clothing during operation. Avoid inhaling its vapours and ensure that the operation is carried out in a well-ventilated area.
