Dichlorocyclohexane, with the CAS number 19398-57-3, is a chlorinated hydrocarbon characterized by the presence of two chlorine atoms attached to a cyclohexane ring. This compound typically exists as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive odor. It is known for its relatively high density and low solubility in water, making it more soluble in organic solvents. Dichlorocyclohexane is primarily used in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of various chemicals. Its chemical properties include reactivity with nucleophiles due to the presence of the chlorine atoms, which can undergo substitution reactions. Safety considerations are important when handling this substance, as it may pose health risks, including potential toxicity and environmental hazards. Proper storage and disposal methods are essential to mitigate these risks. Overall, dichlorocyclohexane serves as a valuable compound in chemical research and industrial applications, but it requires careful handling due to its hazardous nature.
