3,6-Dichloropyridic acid (also known as diclopyridinic acid or Biccaoz) is a highly effective and low-toxicity herbicide developed by Dow Chemical in the United States. The key step in its synthesis involves the selective reduction and declorination of 3,4,5,6-tetrachloropyridic acid. The company has mastered a technology for producing 3,6-dichloropyridic acid from 3,4,5,6-tetrachloropyridic acid through electrochemical selective reduction declorination, with an annual production capacity of 500 tons. This process achieves a product yield exceeding 90%, a conversion rate over 95%, a Faraday efficiency greater than 70%, and cell voltage controlled within 4 V.
