2,4-Dichloropyrimidine
1. Basic Product Information
Product Name: 2,4-Dichloropyrimidine
CAS Number: 3934-20-1
Molecular Formula: C4H2Cl2N2
Molecular Weight: 148.98
Synonyms: 2,4-Dichloro-1,3-pyrimidine
Product Category: Heterocyclic pharmaceutical intermediate, pesticide intermediate, fine chemical synthetic raw material
2. Physical and Chemical Properties
Physical Indicators
- Appearance: White to off-white crystalline powder
- Odor: Slight characteristic heterocyclic odor
- Solubility: Soluble in dichloromethane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, toluene and methanol; slightly soluble in ethanol; insoluble in water and aliphatic alkanes
- Melting Point: 58–62 °C
- Boiling Point: 246 °C (760 mmHg)
- Density (20 °C): 1.47 g/cm3
- Hygroscopicity: Non-hygroscopic under sealed dry storage
- Aqueous Stability: Stable under neutral and weakly acidic conditions; undergoes hydrolysis under heated alkaline aqueous solution to produce pyrimidinol derivatives
Chemical Characteristics
- Molecular Structure: Pyrimidine heterocycle substituted with two chlorine atoms at C2 and C4 positions
- Core Functional Mechanism: The two chlorine atoms have high reactivity for nucleophilic substitution reactions; easily reacts with amines, alcohols, phenols and thiols to construct pyrimidine-based drug and pesticide skeletons
- Photostability: Slightly light-sensitive; long-term ultraviolet irradiation leads to trace dechlorination impurities
- Thermal Stability: Stable below 50 °C; above melting point, slow sublimation occurs; high-temperature decomposition releases toxic hydrogen chloride and nitrogen-containing fumes
- Chemical Compatibility: Compatible with anhydrous aprotic solvents; incompatible with strong alkaline solutions, strong nucleophiles and strong oxidants
3. Main Application Fields
- Core Application: Pharmaceutical Intermediate
Key building block for synthesizing anti-tumor drugs, anti-viral medicines, JAK inhibitors and kinase-targeted small molecule pharmaceuticals via nucleophilic substitution at C2/C4 sites - Agrochemical Intermediate
Raw material for manufacturing herbicides, fungicides and insecticides with pyrimidine parent ring structure - Organic Synthetic Reagent
Model substrate for heterocyclic synthesis and nucleophilic substitution reaction research in laboratory fine chemistry
4. Platform Category & Product Group Guidance
1) Domestic B2B Platform Category
Recommended Path: Organic Intermediates / Pharmaceutical Intermediates
Reason: Active dichloropyrimidine heterocyclic raw material dedicated to pharmaceutical and pesticide synthesis
2) English Product Group Dropdown Options
Recommended Selection: Basic Organic Chemicals
Do NOT select Pharmaceutical Chemicals exclusively; it is an intermediate rather than finished drug API
3. Standard Foreign Trade Packaging Specification
