| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Description]
Chloraniformethan is an obsolete herbicide. It is moderately soluble in water and volatile. Limited environmental fate data is available in the public domain. It has a low mammalian toxicity. It is moderately toxic to fish. There are gaps in ecotoxicological data. | [Definition]
ChEBI: Chloraniformethan is a dichlorobenzene and an amide fungicide. | [Production Methods]
Chloraniformethan is commercially produced by a process that begins with 3,4-dichloroaniline, which reacts with chloral (trichloroacetaldehyde) under acidic or neutral conditions to form a stable intermediate. This is then formylated, typically using formic acid or formyl chloride, to produce the final compound. | [Mechanism of action]
