Name: Cyanuric chloride
CAS number: 108-77-0

EINECS number: 203-614-9
MDL No.：MFCD00006046
Product Description
Cyanuric chloride (CAS 108-77-0) is a symmetrical s-triazine derivative substituted with three reactive chlorine atoms. Presenting as a white crystalline solid with a pungent odor, it exhibits temperature-dependent reactivity, allowing for step-wise substitution of its chlorine atoms by nucleophiles such as amines, alcohols, and thiols.
Primary Applications
- Agrochemical Manufacturing: Serves as a core precursor for synthesizing triazine herbicides, including atrazine, simazine, and cyanazine.
- Dye & Brightener Production: Utilized as a central building block in manufacturing reactive dyes for textiles and optical brightening agents (OBAs) for paper and detergents.
- Polymer & Chemical Intermediates: Employed as a crosslinking agent, bioconjugation anchor, and intermediate for UV stabilizers and specialty resins.
Storage & Handling
Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area away from moisture, heat, and strong bases. Keep containers tightly closed, as exposure to atmospheric humidity induces hydrolysis to cyanuric acid and liberates hydrochloric acid gas.
