Benzylidene Chloride Pesticide Grade from Mexico
Benzylidene chloride (dichloromethylbenzene) is a halogenated derivative of toluene, produced by chlorination of the methyl side chain. While it is derived from an aromatic hydrocarbon, its classification here reflects its status as a halogenated derivative of a cyclanic hydrocarbon under Canadian tariff rules. It is used as an intermediate in pesticide manufacturing and chemical synthesis.
