1-Chlorooctane

Description:
1-Chlorooctane, with the CAS number 111-85-3, is an organic compound classified as an alkyl halide. It features a straight-chain structure with a chlorine atom attached to the first carbon of an octane chain, making it a primary alkyl halide. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature, exhibiting a characteristic odor. It is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether. 1-Chlorooctane has a relatively low boiling point compared to other chlorinated hydrocarbons, which makes it useful in various applications, including as a solvent and in organic synthesis. Its chemical reactivity is primarily due to the presence of the chlorine atom, which can participate in nucleophilic substitution reactions. Additionally, 1-chlorooctane is considered to have moderate toxicity, and appropriate safety measures should be taken when handling it, as it can cause irritation to the skin and eyes.
