Chemistry:3,4-Dichloroaniline
From HandWiki
Preparation
It is produced by hydrogenation of 3,4-dichloronitrobenzene.[1]
Safety and environmental aspects
Being a precursor to some herbicides, the toxicity and fate of dichloroaniline is of interest. One pathway for the biodegradation of dichloroaniline is oxidation to the catechol derivatives.[2]
