China and the United States are the leading exporters of Tropolone (CAS 533-75-5), accounting for the majority of global shipments, while Germany, Japan, and South Korea represent the largest importing markets. Recent trade data shows relative stability in export volumes from top suppliers, with modest upward pressure on Tropolone prices amid tightening specialty chemical supply chains in Asia and Europe.
Tropolone is a white to pale yellow crystalline solid with a characteristic phenolic odor; it has a melting point of approximately 50–52 °C and sublimes readily at room temperature. It is classified as a non-benzenoid aromatic compound and a seven-membered heterocyclic enol. Tropolone serves primarily as a specialty chemical intermediate in organic synthesis, valued for its chelating ability and unique reactivity profile. Its main industrial applications include use in the preparation of metal tropolonates (e.g., copper and aluminum complexes) for catalysts and stabilizers, and as a building block in the synthesis of certain pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and functional dyes. It is employed in research and niche production contexts within fine chemicals, catalysis, and materials science.
Known as pyrrole pesticide, acaricide with new structure, it has been proved to have good biological control effect on boring, piercing-sucking and chewing insects and mites, better than cypermethrin and cypermethrin. Also its acaricidal activity is stronger than dicofol and tricyclic tin. This agent is characterized with the following: broad-spectrum pesticide and acaricide; both stomach poisoning and contact toxicity; no mutual resistance with other pesticides; moderate residual activity in crops; selective and systemic activity in nutrient solution absorbed by root system; moderate oral toxicity and lower dermal toxicity to mammalian life; low effective spray rate (100g active ingredient / hm2). Its significant insecticidal, acaricidal activity and unique chemical structure has received widespread attention and attention.
