5-Chloro-2-methylaminobenzophenone is an intermediate in the synthesis of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid. 5-Chloro-2-methylaminobenzophenone is a reactive intermediate that can be used for wastewater treatment and for the production of chemicals that are used in the manufacture of other substances. It is also a reaction intermediate in chemical ionization. It has been shown to have chronic toxicity as well as carcinogenic effects when it is present in urine samples or human serum. In addition, 5-Chloro-2-methylaminobenzophenone has been found to cause light sensitivity and skin irritation when it is exposed to UV light. This chemical reacts with hydrochloric acid and pyridoxine hydrochloride to form 2,4,-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid. The activation energies for this process are between 30 and 60 kJ/mol.
