| | 3,4-Dichlorophenol Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | light yellow to brown crystals | | Uses | 3,4-Dichlorophenol (3,4-DCP) is used in the synthesis of (Z)-5-arylmethylidene rhodanines as anti-methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) agent. It can also be used in the preparation of 2-(3,4-dichlorophenoxy)-N-(2-morpholin-4-ylethyl)acetamide for the treatment of inflammatory pain. | | Definition | ChEBI: 3,4-Dichlorophenol is a dichlorophenol. | | General Description | Needles (from benzene, petroleum ether) or light brown and yellow crystals. Odor threshold 100 μg/L. Taste threshold 0.3 μg/L in water. | | Air & Water Reactions | Insoluble in water. | | Reactivity Profile | 3,4-Dichlorophenol is incompatible with acid chlorides, acid anhydrides and oxidizing agents. | | Fire Hazard | Flash point data for 3,4-Dichlorophenol are not available. 3,4-Dichlorophenol is probably combustible. | | Purification Methods | Crystallise 3,4-dichlorophenol from pet ether/*benzene mixture and/or distil it.
