2,3-DICHLORO-5-(TRIFLUOROMETHYL)PYRIDINE (DCTF)

The 2,3-Dichloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine, DCTF, is the key intermediate of new-type (fluoropyridine) pesticides such as chlorfluazuron, fluazuron, haloxyfop-R-methyl and fluazinam. The pesticides are characterised by broad spectrum, systemicity, high effectivity, low toxicity and small pollution.
