2,5-Dichlorobenzonitrile is a synthetic aromatic compound with chlorine substituents at the ortho and para positions relative to the nitrile group. Classified under HTS 2926.90.1200 as 'other' dichlorobenzonitriles, it serves as a key building block for herbicides and pharmaceutical intermediates. The two chloro groups provide specific reactivity for nucleophilic substitution reactions.

Import Tips

Submit spectroscopic data verifying 2,5-isomer (CAS 3547-16-0) to avoid misclassification with 2,4-isomer

Ensure packaging complies with UN 3439 hazardous material regulations for nitrile compounds

Declare intended use as chemical intermediate, not final pesticide, to prevent reclassification
