2,6-Dichlorobenzyl Alcohol is a benzylic alcohol with two chlorine atoms in the ortho positions, one on each side of the hydroxymethyl group. Laboratory catalogues classify it as a non-heterocyclic building block, meaning a starting material for assembling more complex chlorinated aromatic molecules. This TCI product, catalogue code D1747, comes in a 25 g pack. That quantity covers a range of synthesis experiments, method development work and laboratory-scale analytical tasks, so researchers can run repeated trials from a single supply.
The compound's character comes from the two chlorine atoms that flank the CH2OH group. This arrangement creates steric hindrance and electronic effects that change how the benzylic alcohol reacts. The hydroxyl group can still be oxidised to the aldehyde or carboxylic acid, converted into a benzylic halide, or turned into esters and ethers. Because the 2,6 substitution pattern is so crowded, the compound is useful to researchers who want to compare reactivity across compounds with different degrees of steric hindrance. TCI brand quality helps keep results consistent from one experiment to the next.
In Indonesian laboratories, 2,6-Dichlorobenzyl Alcohol is relevant to organic chemistry and medicinal chemistry research groups, and to analytical laboratories at universities and research institutions. Synthetic chemists can use it as an entry point to chlorinated aromatic targets. Teaching and research laboratories can use it to study how ortho substitution affects benzylic reactivity, and analytical teams can include it in method development work that calls for a well-defined chlorinated aromatic alcohol from a recognised supplier.
Related TCI products
- Oxidation studies: the benzylic hydroxyl group can be oxidised to the corresponding aldehyde or carboxylic acid, which gives access to further 2,6-dichlorinated aromatic intermediates.
- Benzylic halide preparation: the alcohol can be converted into a benzylic halide, a more reactive intermediate for later substitution and coupling steps in multistep synthesis.
- Ester and ether formation: the hydroxyl group can form esters and ethers, so researchers can attach the 2,6-dichlorobenzyl unit to other molecular frameworks under laboratory conditions.
- Steric hindrance comparison studies: the crowded 2,6 substitution pattern makes the compound a useful reference for comparing reactivity among benzylic alcohols with different levels of steric hindrance.
- Medicinal chemistry and method development: as a non-heterocyclic building block, it supports the assembly of chlorinated aromatic candidates and laboratory-scale analytical method work in research settings.
