| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [General Description]
Colorless liquid. Sinks in water. | [Reactivity Profile]
M-DICHLOROBENZENE(541-73-1) is incompatible with oxidizing agents and aluminum and its alloys. Above the flash point, explosive vapor-air mixtures may be formed. | [Air & Water Reactions]
This compound is sensitive to moisture. Insoluble in water. | [Health Hazard]
INHALATION: Causes headache, drousiness, unsteadiness. Irritating to mucous membranes. EYES: Severe irritation. SKIN: Severe irritation. INGESTION: Irritation of gastric mucosa, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal cramps and cyanosis. | [Potential Exposure]
The major uses of o-DCB are as
a process solvent in the manufacturing of toluene diisocyanate and as an intermediate in the synthesis of dyestuffs,
herbicides, and degreasers. p-Dichlorbenzene is used
primarily as a moth repellant, a mildew control agent;
space deodorant; and in insecticides, which accounts for
90% of the total production of this isomer. Information is
not available concerning the production and use of m-DCB.
However, it may occur as a contaminant of o-or p-DCB
formulations. Both o-and p-isomers are produced almost
entirely as by-products during the production of
monochlorobenzene | [Fire Hazard]
Special Hazards of Combustion Products: Irritating vapors including hydrogen chloride are produced. | [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 | [Shipping]

There are three isomeric forms of dichlorobenzene (DCB):
m-DCB is a flammable liquid and vapor. | [Waste Disposal]
Incineration, preferably
after mixing with another combustible fuel. Care must be
exercised to assure complete combustion to prevent
the formation of phosgene. An acid scrubber is necessary
to remove the halo acids produced. Consult with
environmental regulatory agencies for guidance on
acceptable disposal practices. Generators of waste containing
this contaminant (≥100 kg/mo) must conform with EPA
regulations governing storage, transportation, treatment, and
waste disposal | [Physical properties]
Clear, colorless liquid with a disinfectant or musty-type odor. At 40 °C, the average odor threshold
concentration and the lowest concentration at which an odor was detected were 170 and 177 μg/L,
respectively. At 25 °C, the lowest concentration at which a taste was detected was 190 μg/L,
respectively (Young et al., 1996). | [Uses]
1,3-Dichlorobenzene was used to study the effect of solvent vapor pressure on the vertical nanowire of C60 molecules. 1,3-Dichlorobenzene, a chlorinated aromatic hydrocarbon, can be detected in environmental samples using an advanced Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy-attenuated total reflectance (FTIR-ATR) sensor. | [Uses]

And it is also used to study the effect of solvent vapor pressure on the vertical nanowire of C60 molecules1. 1,3-Dichlorobenzene, a chlorinated aromatic hydrocarbon, can be detected in environmental samples using an advanced Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy-attenuated total reflectance (FTIR-ATR) sensor. | [Uses]

ChEBI: A dichlorobenzene carrying chloro substituents at positions 1 and 3. | [Preparation]
1,3-Dichlorobenzene is prepared from o-chloroaniline through diazotization and displacement reaction.
Add o-chloroaniline and hydrochloric acid into the reaction pot, mix evenly below 25°C, cool to 0°C, drop in sodium nitrite solution, control the temperature at 0-5°C, stop adding when the potassium iodide starch indicator turns blue, and obtain diazonium salt solution. Then add the diazonium salt solution into the hydrochloric acid solution of cuprous chloride at 0～5℃, stir well, heat up to 60～70℃ and react for 1h, after cooling, let stand for stratification, and use 5% sodium hydroxide for the oil layer. Repeated washing with water, dehydration with anhydrous calcium chloride, fractional distillation, and collection of fractions at 177-183 °C to obtain the product 1,3-dichlorobenzene. | [Synthesis Reference(s)]

Flammable | [Environmental Fate]
Biological. When 1,3-dichlorobenzene was statically incubated in the dark at 25 °C with yeast
extract and settled domestic wastewater inoculum, significant biodegradation with gradual
acclimation was followed by a deadaptive process in subsequent subcultures. At a concentration of
5 mg/L, 59, 69, 39, and 35% losses were observed after 7, 14, 21, and 28-d incubation periods,
respectively. At a concentration of 10 mg/L, percent losses were virtually unchanged. After 7, 14,
21, and 28-d incubation periods, percent losses were 58, 67, 31, and 33, respectively (Tabak et al.,
1981).
Photolytic. The sunlight irradiation of 1,3-dichlorobenzene (20 g) in a 100-mL borosilicate
glass-stoppered Erlenmeyer flask for 56 d yielded 520 ppm trichlorobiphenyl (Uyeta et al., 1976).
Chemical/Physical. Anticipated products from the reaction of 1,3-dichlorobenzene with
atmospheric ozone or OH radicals are chlorinated phenols, ring cleavage products, and nitro
compounds (Cupitt, 1980). Based on an assumed base-mediated 1% disappearance after 16 d at 85
oC and pH 9.70 (pH 11.26 at 25 oC), the hydrolysis half-life was estimated to be >900 yr
(Ellington et al., 1988). 1,3-Dichlorobenzene (0.17–0.23 mM) reacted with OH radicals in water
(pH 8.7) at a rate of 5.0 x 109/M·sec (Haag and Yao, 1992). | [Purification Methods]
Wash it with aqueous 10% NaOH, then with water until neutral, dry and distil it. Conductivity material (ca 10-10 mhos) has been prepared by refluxing over P2O5 for 8hours, then fractionally distilling, and storing with activated alumina. m-Dichlorobenzene dissolves rubber stoppers.
