| 3-Chloro-4-methylaniline Usage And Synthesis |
Chemical Properties | The chloromethylanilines are colorless or
white crystalline solids or liquids, some have a mild
fishy odor. | Chemical Properties | brown solid | Uses | 2-Chloro-4-aminotoluene has been used in the preparation of 2-chloro-4-cyanotoluene by Sandmeyer reaction with cuprous cyanide. | Definition | ChEBI: A monochloroaniline that is p-toluidine in which one of the hydrogens that is meta to the amino group is replaced by a chlorine. | General Description | Brown solid with a mild odor. | Air & Water Reactions | May be sensitive to prolonged exposure to air and light. Insoluble in water. | Reactivity Profile | 3-Chloro-4-methylaniline may be sensitive to prolonged exposure to air and light. 3-Chloro-4-methylaniline may react with oxidizing agents. 3-Chloro-4-methylaniline is incompatible with acids, acid chlorides, acid anhydrides and chloroformates. 3-Chloro-4-methylaniline is also incompatible with reducing agents. | Fire Hazard | 3-Chloro-4-methylaniline is combustible. | Safety Profile | Poison by ingestion,
intravenous, and intraperitoneal routes.
Mutation data reported. When heated to
decomposition it emits toxic fumes of Cl
and NOx. See also other chloro toluidme
entries. | Potential Exposure | Most of the isomers are used in dyestuff manufacture. The 3-chloro-para isomer is used to kill
birds. It is marketed as pelleted bait for control of bird
populations. | Shipping | UN2239 Chlorotoluidines, solid, Hazard Class:
