Application
5,6-Dichloro-2,3-dicyanopyrazine (dichlorodicyanopyrazine, CAS 56413-95-7, C6Cl2N4, >98% purity, MFCD00191419, 5,6-dichloropyrazine-2,3-dicarbonitrile, UN2811) is an advanced heterocyclic building block with an exceptionally electron-deficient pyrazine core. It is a key pharmaceutical intermediate for the synthesis of protein kinase inhibitors, antiviral agents, and drug candidates targeting oncology, anti-inflammatory and CNS disorders. In the agrochemical industry, it serves as a precursor for highly active fungicides and herbicides, including a new class of dihydroorotate dehydrogenase inhibitors. In functional materials, this dicyano compound is a vital precursor for organic fluorescent dyes, luminescent materials and OLEDs. It also enables the synthesis of dicyanopyrazine chromophores with strong intermolecular charge-transfer characteristics for dyeing polyester and nylon with excellent wash and rub fastness. For organic electronics, it acts as a building block for organic semiconductors (OFETs) and nonlinear optical materials (NLO). Its potent herbicidal activity makes it a key intermediate for the synthesis of various agrochemicals.
