Application

2,6-Dichloroanisole serves as a versatile building block in the synthesis of agrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, and fragrances. It is commonly employed as a precursor in the production of herbicides and fungicides due to its reactive halogen substituents. Researchers also utilize it in the development of specialty polymers and as a flavoring agent in the food industry. Its methoxy group enables further functionalization in palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions.
