China and Germany are the leading exporters of 1,3-Dichloropentane (CAS 30122-12-4), accounting for the majority of global shipments in recent years; the United States and South Korea are the principal importers, together representing over half of total recorded imports. Trade volumes have remained relatively stable since 2022, with modest upward pressure on 1,3-Dichloropentane prices observed in key importing markets amid tightening supply from major Asian producers.
1,3-Dichloropentane is a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature with a mild chlorinated odor and moderate volatility. It is a saturated aliphatic chlorinated hydrocarbon and functions primarily as a specialty organic chemical intermediate. Its main industrial use is in the synthesis of more complex molecules, particularly as a building block for agrochemicals—including herbicides and plant growth regulators—and certain pharmaceutical active ingredients. It is also employed in research and development settings for constructing chiral or functionalized pentane derivatives used in fine chemical manufacturing.
