Nature:
5,6-trans-cloprostenol is a liquid, colorless to light yellow oily liquid at room temperature. It has a molecular weight of 402.93g/mol. Its molecular formula contains chlorine atoms, which makes it toxic.

Use:
5,6-trans-cloprostenol is used as a drug in veterinary medicine, mainly for pig breeding management. It can trigger production by promoting uterine smooth muscle contraction, and can also be used for abortion and uterine cleansing.

Preparation Method:
The preparation method of 5,6-trans-cloprostenol usually includes a two-step reaction. The first is a transesterification reaction using a compound having a hydroxyl group and a halogen substituent to produce methyl trans-chloroprim. Then, trans-chloroprostenol methyl ester is converted to 5,6-trans-cloprostenol by a hydrolysis reaction in the presence of a base catalyst.

Safety Information:
5,6-trans-cloprostenol is a toxic substance and should be handled and used in accordance with safe operating procedures. It has an irritating effect on the skin and eyes and may cause allergic reactions. Immediately flush with water at the time of contact and seek medical help.
