Frequently asked questions
Curated by ChemExact's editorial team and reviewed by chemistry and API procurement specialists. Each factual claim is traceable to the cross-source citation graph at the bottom of the page.
What is dichloromethane (CAS 75-09-2)?
dichloromethane is a chemical compound with molecular formula CH2Cl2 and molecular weight ≈ 84.93 g/mol. Its CAS Registry Number is 75-09-2. Dichloromethane (Methylene Chloride) can cause cancer according to an independent committee of scientific and health experts.
What is the molecular formula and weight of dichloromethane (CAS 75-09-2)?
The molecular formula of dichloromethane is CH2Cl2, and the molecular weight is 84.93 g/mol. This data has been cross-verified against PubChem, ChEMBL and CAS Common Chemistry.
What are the SMILES and InChIKey of dichloromethane?
The canonical SMILES of dichloromethane is `C(Cl)Cl`, and the InChIKey is `YMWUJEATGCHHMB-UHFFFAOYSA-N`. These international identifiers are reusable in PubChem, ChemDraw, RDKit and most cheminformatics toolchains.
What are the common synonyms of dichloromethane?
Common synonyms of dichloromethane include: DICHLOROMETHANE, Methylene chloride, 75-09-2, Methylene dichloride, Methane, dichloro-, Methylene bichloride, Methane dichloride, Solaesthin — 20 synonyms in total. The full list (sourced from PubChem) is available in the page header under "Show synonyms".
What is the current market price of dichloromethane (CAS 75-09-2)?
ChemExact follows a claimed-supplier real-time pricing model: when a verified supplier claims this product page, the right sidebar shows their public quote, MOQ and validity. Current page status: UNCLAIMED — suppliers welcome to onboard and quote. For market reference, see weekly bulletins from ICIS (icis.com), S&P Global Commodity Insights, or China-side aggregators (Longzhong, Sublime, BAIINFO).
How has dichloromethane price trended recently?
dichloromethane pricing typically tracks upstream feedstocks (oil, propylene/aromatics), export demand and seasonal turnaround schedules. Authoritative trackers include: ① ICIS weekly reports; ② S&P Global Platts; ③ China General Administration of Customs (GACC) export data; ④ China Petroleum & Chemical Industry Federation (CPCIF) monthly bulletins. ChemExact will aggregate public weekly bulletins as a market-reference layer (no quote-binding) in subsequent sprints.
Who are the major manufacturers of dichloromethane in China?
Authoritative public sources for finding licensed Chinese manufacturers of dichloromethane: ① China MEM Hazardous Chemicals Registration System — https://whpdj.mem.gov.cn/ (searchable registered enterprises); ② China Chemical Information Center (CCIN) industry database — http://www.ccin.com.cn/; ③ Public B2B platforms such as Made-in-China.com and Alibaba 1688 (with verified-supplier filters). Note: dichloromethane is on China's Hazardous Chemicals Catalogue, so all production/trading entities must hold the corresponding operating licenses. ChemExact will aggregate the public regulatory lists into a 'potential suppliers' candidate pool (with full provenance) in the next sprint.
Who are the largest global producers of dichloromethane?
Global supply discovery for dichloromethane is best started from public regulatory registries: ① ECHA REACH registered companies — https://echa.europa.eu/information-on-chemicals (by CAS 75-09-2 returns all EU-compliant registrants); ② US EPA CompTox Chemicals Dashboard — https://comptox.epa.gov/dashboard/; ③ Japan NITE Chemical Risk Information Platform (CHRIP). These registries list compliant producers/importers and serve as a credible first-pass shortlist for international procurement.
What grades of dichloromethane are commercially available?
dichloromethane is typically supplied in the following grades: Industrial / Technical (≥ 99%, bulk feedstock), Reagent (AR/CP/GR, ≥ 99.5%, lab analytics), HPLC / GC (≥ 99.9%, chromatography & spectroscopy). Grade-specific specs are confirmed via the supplier's SDS and CoA. ChemExact lets verified suppliers attach hash-validated CoA/SDS files to their claimed product pages.
Where can I download the SDS / MSDS for dichloromethane (CAS 75-09-2)?
Authoritative SDS sources: ① PubChem 'Safety and Hazards' section — https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/6344; ② US NIH Hazardous Substances Data Bank (HSDB); ③ ECHA REACH dossier; ④ Supplier-attached SDS on the claimed product page. ChemExact does not host SDS files directly (to avoid version drift); all SDS links route to source.
What should be included in a Certificate of Analysis (CoA) for dichloromethane?
A typical industrial CoA for an organic chemical includes: assay (GC%), appearance, density, refractive index, water content (Karl Fischer), acidity, distillation range or boiling point, heavy metals, and iron content. Reagent / pharma grades additionally provide IR / NMR / HPLC traces. ChemExact requires verified suppliers to upload a CoA template upon claiming, so buyers can perform back-validation.
What licenses are required to procure or transport dichloromethane?
Because dichloromethane is listed under 应急管理部危险化学品目录, the following licenses apply under China's *Regulations on the Safe Management of Hazardous Chemicals*: ① distributors must hold a Hazardous Chemicals Business License; ② end-users handling highly toxic / explosive precursors require a Use License; ③ road transport must be performed by carriers holding Hazardous Goods Road Transport qualifications, using purpose-built vehicles and certified attendants; ④ cross-border shipment must additionally comply with IMDG (sea), IATA (air), or ADR (road) rules. Refer to the latest MEM rulings.
