Application

2,6-Dichlorobenzonitrile can be used as a starting material to synthesize:
  • 2,6-Dichlorobenzaldehyde using lithium N, N′-dimethylethylenediaminoaluminum hydride as a reducing agent.
  • 5-(2,6-Dichlorophenyl)-2H-tetrazole via gold-catalyzed nucleophilic (3 + 2) cycloaddition reaction with sodium azide.
  • 2,6-Dichlorobenzamide via hydrolysis using potassium tert-butoxide as a catalyst.
  • Chloro-aminoindazole by reacting with hydrazine monohydrate.
  • 2,6-Dichlorobenzenecarboselenoamide by treating with Woollins′ reagent.
