Clorofene Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

Solid

Uses

Used in soaps, anionic detergents, cosmetics and aerosol spray products. It is a useful biochemical for proteomics research.

Uses

In household, hospital and veterinary disinfectant preparations.

Production Methods

Clorofene can be prepared by reaction of 2-benzylphenol with SO2Cl2 at 100 C. It is used as an active agent in disinfectants.

General Description

White to light tan or pink flakes or white crystals. Insoluble in water. Slight phenolic odor.

Air & Water Reactions

Insoluble in water.

Reactivity Profile

Clorofene is incompatible with acids and oxidizing agents . Is sensitive to light. Stable at temperatures up to 77°F when protected from light, but storage at 140° F causes decomposition.

Hazard

Highly toxic, an irritant.

Fire Hazard

Clorofene is combustible.

Flammability and Explosibility

Not classified
