1,3-Dichloro-5-methoxybenzene, with the CAS number 33719-74-3, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure, which includes a benzene ring substituted with two chlorine atoms and a methoxy group. The chlorine atoms are positioned at the 1 and 3 positions of the benzene ring, while the methoxy group (-OCH3) is located at the 5 position, contributing to the compound's overall reactivity and properties. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on temperature and purity. It is known for its moderate volatility and solubility in organic solvents, making it useful in various chemical syntheses and applications. The presence of chlorine atoms enhances its electrophilic character, which can influence its reactivity in substitution reactions. Additionally, the methoxy group can act as an electron-donating group, affecting the compound's electronic properties. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this substance, as it may pose health risks and environmental hazards.
