(2,5-Dichlorophenyl)boronic acid(CAS: 135145-90-3)

(2,5-Dichlorophenyl)boronic acid is an organic compound with the chemical formula C8H4Cl2BO2. It is a boronic acid derivative containing a phenyl ring with two chlorine substituents at the 2 and 5 positions and a boronic acid group. It is typically used in organic synthesis, particularly in Suzuki couplings and other boron-containing reactions.

(2,5-Dichlorophenyl)boronic acid is primarily used in organic synthesis as a reagent for coupling reactions, especially in the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions. It is also utilized in the preparation of pharmaceuticals and in academic and industrial research due to its reactivity with various boron-containing compounds.

(2,5-Dichlorophenyl)boronic acid is generally safe when handled with appropriate precautions. It is corrosive to skin and eyes and should be used in a well-ventilated area or in a fume hood. Protective equipment such as gloves and safety goggles should be worn. Ingestion or inhalation should be avoided, and it should be stored away from heat and sources of ignition.

(2,5-Dichlorophenyl)boronic acid should be stored in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight and heat sources. It should be kept in a tightly sealed container to prevent exposure to moisture and air. Storage at temperatures below 25°C is recommended to maintain its stability and reactivity. Proper waste disposal methods should be followed after use to ensure environmental safety.
