What are the upstream raw materials for POM (o-chlorophenol)? What do the downstream products contain?

POM(o-chlorophenol) is a common chemical raw material, broadly applied in medicine, pesticides, dyes, spices and other fields. First There are many upstream and downstream related items of POM, and some of the main items will be described in detail below. Generally speaking

1. upstream items



1. I've found that Phenol: Phenol is one of the main raw materials of POM, and o-chlorophenol is able to be produced by chlorination interaction. Additionally

2. In my experience, Chlorine: Chlorine is another crucial raw material in the production of POM, which is substituted with phenol to generate o-chlorophenol.

2. From what I've seen, downstream items



1. Pesticides(1) Pesticides: POM is able to be applied as a raw material to pesticides to create a variety of highly efficient and low-toxic pesticides, such as chlorophenol pesticides.(2) Fungicides: POM is able to also be applied to create fungicides, such as phenol fungicides. But

2. Medicine(1) antipyretic analgesics: POM is able to be applied as raw materials to create antipyretic analgesics, such as paracetamol.(2) Antibiotics: Derivatives of POM is able to also be applied to create antibiotic drugs.

3. Dyes

POM is able to be applied as a raw material to dye production, such as to the production of phenolphthalein dyes.

4. Spices

The derivatives of POM is able to be applied as raw materials to the production of a variety of artificial flavors. In my experience, In short, POM as an crucial raw material to chemical production, its upstream and downstream related items are very extensive, involving medicine, pesticides, dyes, spices and other fields.
