Synthesis

121-86-8

95-74-9

General procedure for the synthesis of 3-chloro-p-toluidine from 2-chloro-4-nitrotoluene: General method: Nitro compounds (1 eq.), hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP, 10 eq.) and iron powder (5 eq.) were added to the reaction tube and mixed. Subsequently, a 2N aqueous hydrochloric acid solution was slowly added to the reaction mixture. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 30 minutes and then neutralized with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) solution. Next, it was extracted three times with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution. The organic layers were combined, washed with brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate (Na2SO4), filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. Finally, the crude product was purified by silica gel column chromatography to obtain the target product 3-chloro-p-toluidine.

Potential ExposureMost of the isomers are used in dyestuff manufacture. The 3-chloro-para isomer is used to killbirds. It is marketed as pelleted bait for control of birdpopulations.
