  • Product Name :

    3-Chloro-2-methylphenyl methyl sulfide
  • CAS No. :

    82961-52-2
  • Application :

    Tembotrione
  • Description
Our 3-chloro-2-methylthiomethyl ether (also known as 3-chloro-2-methylthiomethyl ether) is a colorless to pale yellow transparent liquid, a high-purity aromatic thion ether. It is a key starting material for triketone herbicides and plays an important role in the modern agrochemical industry chain. We employ advanced methylthiolation synthesis technology, strictly controlling reaction byproducts to ensure high and low yields, effectively improving the yield and product quality of downstream synthesis reactions.

Applications

DUDLEY’s 3-Chloro-2-methylphenyl methyl sulfide (CAS: 82961-52-2) is an important building block in the fields of pesticides and fine chemicals, and is mainly used in the synthesis of herbicides.

 

1. Agrochemical Intermediates: Tembotrione Key Precursor: This is the most important application of this product. Tembotrione is a second-generation triketone herbicide for corn fields developed by Bayer, characterized by its broad-spectrum herbicidal activity, high activity, and good safety profile. This product, after oxidation (to generate sulfones) and side-chain functionalization modification, is used to construct the core benzoyl skeleton of the embotrione molecule.

     

2. Organic Synthesis : Functional group transformation: The methylthio group (-SMe) in the molecule can be oxidized to sulfoxide or sulfone, and the methyl group (-Me) can undergo halogenation reaction, which can be used to synthesize a variety of complex molecules containing the "3-chloro-2-methyl-4-alkylsulfonyl" structure.
