This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pungent odor, and it is known for its reactivity, particularly with water, where it hydrolyzes to form sebacic acid and hydrochloric acid. Sebacoyl chloride is used in various applications, including the synthesis of polyamides, esters, and other chemical intermediates. It is important to handle this substance with care due to its corrosive nature and potential to cause irritation upon contact with skin or mucous membranes. Proper safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment, are essential when working with sebacoyl chloride in laboratory or industrial settings.
