2,6-Dichloropyridine (Cat No.: R021945) is a halogenated heteroaromatic compound featuring a pyridine ring with chlorine atoms substituted at the 2 and 6 positions. It is a colorless to pale yellow solid with a pungent odor and is used as a valuable intermediate in pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and dye synthesis. The electron-withdrawing chlorine atoms activate the ring for further functionalization via nucleophilic aromatic substitution. Its reactivity and structural properties make it useful in building complex heterocyclic compounds and in the development of biologically active molecules.
