Isopropyl chloroformate

Description:
Isopropyl chloroformate, with the CAS number 108-23-6, is an organic compound classified as an acyl chloride. It is characterized by its colorless to pale yellow liquid form and has a distinctive, pungent odor. This compound is known for its reactivity, particularly as a reagent in organic synthesis, where it is often used to introduce the isopropyl chloroformate group into various substrates. Isopropyl chloroformate is soluble in organic solvents such as ether and chloroform but is not soluble in water. It is sensitive to moisture and can hydrolyze in the presence of water, releasing hydrochloric acid and forming isopropyl alcohol and carbon dioxide. Due to its reactive nature, it should be handled with care, as it can cause irritation to the skin, eyes, and respiratory system. Proper safety precautions, including the use of personal protective equipment, are essential when working with this compound in laboratory settings.
