Description
3-Chloro-4-methylaniline (CAS 95-74-9, EC 202-446-3) is an aromatic amine commercially known under the trade names Starlicide and DRC 1347, and abbreviated as 3-CPT. It belongs to the chloromethylaniline chemical family and is classified under HS code 29214300.
In agriculture, 3-CPT serves as the active ingredient in avicide formulations, where it disrupts cellular respiration in target bird species such as starlings and blackbirds, causing rapid mortality at controlled bait stations. It is also employed as a chemical intermediate in the synthesis of agrochemical compounds, contributing to the construction of substituted aniline-based active substances.
3-Chloro-4-methylaniline is supplied in solid form and is subject to REACH registration requirements within the European Union. Procurement quantities and packaging formats are available on request, and documentation including SDS and certificate of analysis is provided as standard for regulatory compliance purposes.
