Process for producing chlorophenylhydrazine compounds.

摘要

A process for producing a chlorophenylhydrazine compound is disclosed, which comprises chlorinating at least one hydrogen atom on the phenyl nucleus in a beta-imidated phenylhydrazine compound and subsequently hydrolyzing the chlorinated compound. Said chlorophenylhydrazine compound is useful as starting material for the production of herbicide, insecticide and photographic coupler is produced in high yield and low cost.
