2,5-Dichloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine, 97%, Thermo Scientific Chemicals

Description

2-chloro-6-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine, 2-chloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine and 3-chloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine were each converted into the three possible carboxylic acids 2, 4, 6,8, 10, 12, 16, 17 and 20. This was achieved by employing several, but not all of the organometallic toolbox methods : transformation of a more basic organometallic species into a less basic isomer by transmetalation-equilibration.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.

Applications
2-chloro-6-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine, 2-chloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine and 3-chloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine were each converted into the three possible carboxylic acids 2, 4, 6,8, 10, 12, 16, 17 and 20. This was achieved by employing several, but not all of the organometallic “toolbox methods”: transformation of a more basic organometallic species into a less basic isomer by transmetalation-equilibration.

Notes
Store in cool place. Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place. Store away from strong oxidizing agents, aluminum. Protection under nitrogen and lower temperature is recommended(below 4 deg C).
