Benzyl Chloride (α-Chlorotoluene)
Benzyl chloride is a colorless liquid with the formula C6H5CH2Cl, a halogenated derivative of toluene where one hydrogen on the benzylic carbon is replaced by chlorine. It falls under HTS 2903.99.20.00 as a specifically enumerated chlorinated aromatic hydrocarbon used primarily as a chemical intermediate. This compound is reactive and handled under controlled conditions due to its lachrymatory properties.
Benzotrichloride (α,α,α-Trichlorotoluene)
Benzotrichloride (C6H5CCl3) is a chlorinated derivative of toluene with three chlorine atoms on the benzylic carbon, specifically enumerated in HTS 2903.99.20.00. This corrosive liquid serves as a key intermediate in dye and pharmaceutical synthesis. Its classification reflects its status as a pure, chemically defined halogenated aromatic hydrocarbon.
