| Application: | 1,3-Dichloro-2-propanol can be used as a reactant to synthesize: • Hydroxyl-N-tosylcyclams via sodium ethoxide catalyzed cyclization reaction with di(poly)-N-tosylamides. • (R)-Epichlorohydrin using biocatalysts. • 1,3-dichloropropene, a soil fumigant, and synthetic glycerol. It can also be used as an intermediate in the production of epoxy resins, as well as a solvent for hard resins and nitrocellulose. |
| General description: | 1,3-Dichloro-2-propanol is a food processing contaminant. Biotransformation of 1,3-dichloro-2-propanol to epichlorohydrin by the whole cells of recombinant Escherichia coli via resin-based in situ product removal has been investigated. 1,3-Dichloro-2-propanol is used as a pharmaceutical intermediate and solvent for paints, lacquers, and epoxy resins. |
