2-Chloro-5-Chloromethylthiazole (CCMT) Suppliers - Premium China Factory for Neonicotinoid Insecticide Intermediates
Product Overview
2-Chloro-5-chloromethylthiazole (CCMT) is a pale yellow crystalline or liquid intermediate with a content of ≥98% and a melting point of 29-31℃. It is essential for synthesizing second-generation neonicotinoid insecticides.
Key Advantages
Offers lower dosage, broader spectrum of action, and higher safety. Effective against above-ground and underground pests, and suitable for treating stems, leaves, soil, and seeds.
Synthesis Method: Using 3-chloropropene as the raw material, chlorine gas (or compounds like sulfonyl chloride) and the chloroform solution of 1-isothiocyanato-2-propene are simultaneously injected into a refluxing chloroform solution for reaction.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What are the physical properties of CCMT?
A: CCMT appears as a pale yellow crystalline or liquid with a melting point of 29-31℃ and a purity content of ≥98%.
Q2: Which insecticides are synthesized using CCMT?
A: It is a critical intermediate for second-generation neonicotinoids including thiamethoxam, thiamethionam, and chlorothalonil.
Q3: What makes second-generation neonicotinoids better?
A: Compared to the first generation, they require lower dosages, have a broader spectrum of action, and provide higher safety levels.
Q4: How can CCMT-based insecticides be applied?
A: They are versatile and can be used for treating stems, leaves, soil, and seeds to control both above-ground and underground pests.
Q5: What is the basic configuration method for CCMT?
A: It is configured using 3-chloropropene, chlorine gas (or sulfonyl chloride), and 1-isothiocyanato-2-propene in a refluxing chloroform solution.
