ChEBI: Tridiphane is a dichlorobenzene. | [Production Methods]
Tridiphane is commercially synthesised through a multi-step organic process that centres on constructing its oxirane (epoxide) ring and attaching the two key substituents: a 3,5-dichlorophenyl group and a 2,2,2-trichloroethyl group. The production typically begins with the preparation of the appropriate halogenated aromatic and aliphatic precursors, which are then coupled through nucleophilic substitution or halogenation reactions. The final step involves epoxidation to form the oxirane ring, yielding the active tridiphane molecule. | [Mechanism of action]
