Product Description
Trimesoyl Chloride (TMC) CAS 4422-95-1 is a trifunctional aromatic acyl chloride with EINECS 224-594-8 and molecular formula C9H3Cl3O3.
Synonyms: 1,3,5-Benzenetricarbonyl trichloride; Benzene-1,3,5-tricarbonyl chloride; Trimesic acid trichloride; TMC.
CAS: 4422-95-1.
Molecular formula: C9H3Cl3O3.
It is supplied as a white to pale yellow solid that may appear as powder, lump, or low-melting material depending on temperature and packing condition.
It is also called 1,3,5-benzenetricarbonyl trichloride or trimesic acid trichloride.
It is mainly used as a monomer raw material for polyamide reverse osmosis and nanofiltration membranes, including thin-film composite membrane interfacial polymerization.
It is also used in specialty polymer synthesis and laboratory or industrial acylation and crosslinking chemistry.
Trimesoyl Chloride contains three acyl chloride groups arranged on an aromatic ring.
This trifunctionality allows it to participate in interfacial polymerization and crosslinking reactions, forming networked polyamide or specialty polymer structures.
It reacts with water and is moisture sensitive.
Confirm appearance, purity or assay, melting range, color, hydrolyzable chloride, moisture, and related impurities or residual solvent.
Store in tightly sealed, moisture-protective containers in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from water, alcohols, amines, heat, strong oxidizers, and incompatible materials.
Use dry handling systems, local exhaust ventilation, and appropriate PPE.
Confirm packaging suitable for a moisture-sensitive reactive intermediate, and follow the current SDS.
Every batch is checked for appearance, purity or assay, melting range, color, hydrolyzable chloride, moisture, and related impurities or residual solvent, with COA/TDS/SDS supplied per grade.
Confirm purity, melting range, color, hydrolyzable chloride, moisture, packaging, and grade as required.

Q:
What is Trimesoyl Chloride CAS 4422-95-1?
A: Trimesoyl Chloride, also called 1,3,5-benzenetricarbonyl trichloride or trimesic acid trichloride, is a trifunctional aromatic acyl chloride with CAS 4422-95-1, EC 224-594-8, and molecular formula C9H3Cl3O3. It is supplied as a white to pale yellow solid that may appear as powder, lump, or low-melting material depending on temperature and packing condition. -
Q:
What is Trimesoyl Chloride mainly used for?
A: It is mainly used as a monomer raw material for polyamide reverse osmosis and nanofiltration membranes, including thin-film composite membrane interfacial polymerization. It is also used in specialty polymer synthesis and laboratory or industrial acylation and crosslinking chemistry. -
Q:
Why is the trifunctional structure important?
A: Trimesoyl Chloride contains three acyl chloride groups arranged on an aromatic ring. This trifunctionality allows it to participate in interfacial polymerization and crosslinking reactions, forming networked polyamide or specialty polymer structures rather than acting as a simple monofunctional capping reagent. -
Q:
Which specifications should be checked before ordering?
A: Confirm appearance, purity or assay, melting range, color, hydrolyzable chloride, moisture, and related impurities or residual solvent. Also confirm whether powder, lump, or low-melting solid presentation is required, and verify packaging suitable for a moisture-sensitive reactive intermediate. -
Q:
How should Trimesoyl Chloride be stored and handled?
A: Store it in tightly sealed, moisture-protective containers in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from water, alcohols, amines, heat, strong oxidizers, and incompatible materials. Use dry handling systems, local exhaust ventilation, and appropriate PPE because the material reacts with water and is moisture sensitive.
