(2-Chloro-5-pyridyl)methylzinc chloride - Introduction
(2-Chloro-5-pyridyl)methylzinc chloride is an organic compound with the chemical formula C6H6Cl2N2Zn. It is a white solid, soluble in organic solvents such as cyclohexane and toluene.
(2-Chloro-5-pyridyl)methylzinc chloride can be used for catalyst synthesis, reduction reaction in organic synthesis and preparation of artificial synthetic enzymes. It can be used as an active reagent in organic synthesis reactions, for example as a nucleophile in reaction with halogenated hydrocarbons to form bonded carbon atoms. In addition, it can also be used in the field of materials science.
The method for preparing (2-Chloro-5-pyriridyl) methylzinc chloride mainly uses (2-chloro-5-pyridyl) methyl lithium and zinc chloride as raw materials. First, zinc chloride was dissolved in dry dimethylformamide, then (2-chloro-5-pyridyl) methyllithium was slowly added dropwise, and the reaction mixture was heated. After completion of the reaction, the product can be obtained by concentration and crystallization.
When using and handling (2-Chloro-5-pyridyl)methylzinc chloride, it is necessary to note that the vapor of its organic solvent may be toxic. Therefore, work in a well-ventilated area and wear personal protective equipment such as protective gloves and goggles. At the same time, avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. In addition, waste such as zinc chloride should be disposed of in accordance with relevant regulations.
