| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Chemical Properties]
The chloromethylanilines are colorless or
white crystalline solids or liquids, some have a mild
fishy odor. | [Potential Exposure]
Most of the isomers are used in dyestuff manufacture. The 3-chloro-para isomer is used to kill
birds. It is marketed as pelleted bait for control of bird
populations. | [First aid]
If this chemical gets into the eyes, remove any
contact lenses at once and irrigate immediately for at least
15 minutes, occasionally lifting upper and lower lids. Seek
medical attention immediately. If this chemical contacts the
skin, remove contaminated clothing and wash immediately
with soap and water. Seek medical attention immediately.
If this chemical has been inhaled, remove from exposure,
begin rescue breathing (using universal precautions, including resuscitation mask) if breathing has stopped and CPR if
heart action has stopped. Transfer promptly to a medical
facility. When this chemical has been swallowed, get medical attention. Give large quantities of water and induce
vomiting. Do not make an unconscious person vomit.

General procedure for the synthesis of 2-chloro-3-methylaniline (CAS: 29027-17-6) from 2-chloro-3-nitrotoluene: 2-chloro-1-methyl-3-nitrobenzene (1 eq.) was dissolved in acetic acid (0.5 M) followed by addition of iron powder (4 eq.). The reaction mixture was heated to reflux at 100 °C for 2 hours. After completion of the reaction, the solvent was removed by distillation under reduced pressure and methanol was added to the residue. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 12 hours and then filtered. The filtrate was concentrated and purified by silica gel column chromatography to afford 2-chloro-3-methylaniline in 60% yield, the product was a red oil.1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ ppm: 6.90 (t, J = 7.7 Hz, 1H), 6.66 (d, J = 7.9 Hz, 1H), 6.50 (d, J = 7.4 Hz, 1H). 5.23 (brs, 2H), 2.24 (s, 3H). | [References]
