CAS 100-14-1: 4-Nitrobenzyl chloride
Description:4-Nitrobenzyl chloride, with the CAS number 100-14-1, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure, featuring a nitro group (-NO2) and a benzyl chloride group (-CH2Cl) attached to a benzene ring. This compound appears as a pale yellow to light brown liquid or solid, depending on the temperature and purity. It is known for its reactivity, particularly in nucleophilic substitution reactions, where the chlorine atom can be replaced by various nucleophiles. The presence of the nitro group enhances the electrophilicity of the benzyl chloride, making it a useful intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. 4-Nitrobenzyl chloride is moderately soluble in organic solvents like ether and chloroform but has limited solubility in water. Safety precautions are necessary when handling this compound, as it can be harmful if inhaled or ingested, and it may cause skin and eye irritation. Proper storage in a cool, dry place away from light is recommended to maintain its stability.
