1-Chloropicolinonitrile stands out in modern chemical production. Known to many by its CAS number 20352-31-6, this compound brings precision and reliability, especially among manufacturers pushing boundaries in crop protection, pharmaceuticals, and advanced materials. The formula C6H3ClN2 carries a distinct structure—chlorine at the 1-position of a pyridine ring, plus a nitrile functional group. Industrial buyers talk about its pale-yellow crystalline appearance, a specific gravity near 1.32, and a melting point around 73°C, helping to identify quality and purity before it even arrives at the factory dock.
The molecular blueprint shows why 1-Chloropicolinonitrile adapts so well to different synthesis routes. Its structure encourages unique reactions, mainly nucleophilic substitutions and condensations. International shippers assign HS code 2933399990, streamlining customs for buyers tracking imports via CIF or FOB shipments. Strong packaging standards, demanded by ISO and SGS audits, aim to eliminate needless loss during handling—throwing a spotlight on China-supply channels and their strict working practices.
Every batch travels with a set of MSDS, SDS, or TDS files, often required on arrival, proving product compliance with REACH and local environmental guidelines. These documents break down things buyers want to know: levels of hazardous or harmful risk, recommended PPE, first-aid response, and storage advice. I’ve seen requests roll in for Kosher and Halal certification—especially in strict regulatory regions—alongside ISO and SGS batch testing, an increasing demand as regulatory rules tighten worldwide.
No reputable supplier overlooks safety. 1-Chloropicolinonitrile is a raw material—safe to handle only with the right protocols in place. If a mishandling incident happens, emergency showers and fume hoods form the last line of defense. The MSDS often highlights specific risks: skin and respiratory irritation, aquatic toxicity. Training workers on chemical handling means as much as flashy packaging or price. Buyers dealing in multi-tonne loads work closely with suppliers, often visiting China-based manufacturing sites, to see operational discipline before agreeing on a quote or inquiring about MOQ and OEM service.
China’s chemical factories have built a reputation for tight, price-competitive supply. Purchase networks focus on stability and long-term relationships—less about the list price, more about consistent delivery, documented quality, and quick response to market customs changes or raw material shortages. Frees-ample offers, CIF and FOB options, and variable MOQ terms let procurement teams adapt to changing demand. Certification marks matter: ISO, SGS, Halal, and Kosher signs attract buyers searching for trusted sellers ready to supply for pharma, agrochemicals, and advanced industrial applications.
Once, a client from a European paint factory sent an urgent inquiry, needing a liter solution in less than a week. Thanks to streamlined stocking and express air freight, supply reached the plant ahead of schedule—proving flexibility counts as much as price quotes. Markets shift, but the drive for transparent specs, quality MSDS, and responsive after-sales support remains constant. Buyers look for more than a “for sale” sign—they want reliable policy guidance, clear purchase terms, and post-sale support with every shipment.
