2,6-Dichlorobenzoxazole is an organic compound characterized by its heterocyclic structure, which includes a benzene ring fused to an oxazole ring. It features two chlorine substituents located at the 2 and 6 positions of the benzene ring, contributing to its chemical reactivity and physical properties. This compound is typically a white to light yellow crystalline solid, exhibiting moderate solubility in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone, while being less soluble in water. 2,6-Dichlorobenzoxazole is known for its applications in the synthesis of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, as well as serving as an intermediate in organic synthesis. It may also exhibit biological activity, making it of interest in medicinal chemistry. Safety data indicates that, like many chlorinated compounds, it should be handled with care due to potential toxicity and environmental concerns. Proper safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment, are recommended when working with this substance.

2,6-Dichlorobenzoxazole is a chlorinating agent that is soluble in hydrochloric acid. It reacts with carbon dioxide and chloride to form 2,4-dichlorophenol and dichloroethane. 2,6-Dichlorobenzoxazole has been shown to have depressant activity on the central nervous system, which may be due to its ability to inhibit acetylcholine release at synapses in the brain. It can also react with aromatic hydrocarbons such as dimethylformamide and triphosgene to form chlorinated derivatives that have been shown to have inhibitory activities against bacteria.
