Clorofene Usage And Synthesis
Chemical PropertiesSolid
UsesIn household, hospital and veterinary disinfectant preparations.
UsesUsed in soaps, anionic detergents, cosmetics and aerosol spray products. It is a useful biochemical for proteomics research.
Production MethodsClorofene can be prepared by reaction of 2-benzylphenol with SO2Cl2 at 100 C. It is used as an active agent in disinfectants.
General DescriptionWhite to light tan or pink flakes or white crystals. Insoluble in water. Slight phenolic odor.
Air & Water ReactionsInsoluble in water.
Reactivity ProfileClorofene is incompatible with acids and oxidizing agents . Is sensitive to light. Stable at temperatures up to 77°F when protected from light, but storage at 140° F causes decomposition.
HazardHighly toxic, an irritant.
Fire HazardClorofene is combustible.
Flammability and ExplosibilityNot classified
