Bis(chloromethyl) ketone is a chemical substance with formula C
3H
4Cl
2O. It is a dangerous solid.
Legal aspects
[edit]Exposures such as contact or inhalation of bis(chloromethyl) ketone can result in irritation or damage to skin, eyes, throat, lungs, liver and kidneys, as well as headaches and fainting.[2]
Consequently, bis(chloromethyl) ketone is classified as an extremely hazardous substance in the United States as defined in Section 302 of the U.S. Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (42 U.S.C. 11002), and is subject to strict reporting requirements by facilities which produce, store, or use it in significant quantities.[3]
Applications
[edit]As both chlorine atoms tend to react at the same time, the compound is primarily useful for synthesis of various ring compounds.[4] Some of the known uses of 1,3-dichloropropanone include in the synthesis mubritinib, dipraglurant, oxathiapiprolin, Fluconazole, UK-47265, watermelon ketones Cascalone & Aldolone & Transluzone & Azurone & Conoline.[5]
In principle, it can be used to manufacture citric acid.[2]
