1-Chloro-4-nitrobenzene is an important intermediate used in the preparation of 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene and 3,4-dichloronitrobenzene. It is used as a raw material in the preparation of 4-nitrodiphenylamine, 4-chloroaninline and (4-[(4-aminobenzene)sulfonyl]aniline). It serves as a common antioxidant, which is found in rubber.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
