CAS 108-12-3

Isovaleryl chloride

Description:

Isovaleryl chloride, with the CAS number 108-12-3, is an organic compound characterized by its structure as a branched-chain acyl chloride. It is derived from isovaleric acid and features a five-carbon chain with a chlorine atom attached to the carbonyl carbon. This colorless liquid has a pungent odor and is known for its reactivity, particularly due to the presence of the acyl chloride functional group, which makes it a useful intermediate in organic synthesis. Isovaleryl chloride is soluble in organic solvents but is not miscible with water. It is typically handled with caution due to its corrosive nature and potential to release harmful fumes upon hydrolysis. In terms of applications, it is utilized in the synthesis of various chemical compounds, including pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Proper safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment, are essential when working with this compound due to its irritant properties and potential health hazards.
