General description

4-Chloro-3-methylaniline is halogenated aniline. It undergoes diazotization reaction with fluoroboric acid to afford 4-chloro-3-tolylphosphonic acid and bis(4-chloro-3-tolyl)phosphinic acid.

Application

4-Chloro-3-methylaniline may be used to synthesize:
  • 4-chloro-3-tolylphosphonic acid
  • bis(4-chloro-3-tolyl)phosphinic acid
  • 4-chloro-3-methylbenzenesulfonyl chloride
  • N-(4-chloro-3-methylphenyl)succinamic acid
