Application
1. 3-Chlorotoluene was used as catalyst in the synthesis of glycidyl methacrylate grafted multi-walled carbon nanotubes/polypropylene nanocomposites..
2. 3-Chlorotoluene is used as a reagent to synthesize 4-Arylchromene derivatives, compounds that induce apoptosis and act as anti-cancer agents. 3-Chlorotoluene is also used as an ingredient in deodorant, and is suspected to cause allergic contact dermatitis in humans.
3. It is used as solvents and as an intermediate for making other chemicals and dyes.
