Identification (FTIR)Conforms
It finds its use in other preparations of substituted benzophenones, for benzoylation of phenols under basic, phase-transfer conditions. D,D,D-Trichlorotoluene is an intermediate, used exclusively in the industrial production of other intermediates such as Benzoylchloride, Benzotrifluoride and 2,4-Dihydroxybenzophenone. α,α,α-Trichlorotoluene is also used in determination of chlorinated toluenes in effluents of wastewater treatment plants and textile industries by closed loop stripping analysis.

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.
