Product overview
3-(Chloromethyl)pyridine hydrochloride (CAS 6959-48-4) belongs to the chemical family of pyridine derivatives and contains a carbon-bound halogen reactive site; its molecular formula is C6H7Cl2N and its molecular weight is 164.03 g/mol. The relevant functional group may support nucleophilic substitution in subsequent organic synthesis; this is potential synthetic reactivity rather than a verified end use.
Application areas
Depending on the synthesis route and project requirements, this product may also be suitable for other related organic synthesis applications.
Potential uses
- The benzylic carbon–halogen bond may undergo substitution by suitable nitrogen-, oxygen- or sulfur-centered nucleophiles to prepare functionalized benzyl derivatives. The pyridine-type ring nitrogen may be studied as a coordination site for metal complexes or as a site for N-alkylation to form pyridinium derivatives.
