Executive summary:

Römpp Online, 2008


The melting point of chlorobenzene is -46°C.

Description of key information

According to literature (Römpp Online, 2008) the melting point of chlorobenzene is -46°C.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Melting / freezing point at 101 325 Pa:
-46 °C

Additional information

Several literature sources were available and provide consistent melting point values, ranging between -46 and -42°C, for the substance. The lowest value from Römpp-online, considered as a reliable source, was chosen as key.
