CAS 112-16-3: Lauroyl chloride
Description:Lauroyl chloride, also known as dodecanoyl chloride, is an acyl chloride derived from lauric acid. It is characterized by its long hydrocarbon chain, consisting of twelve carbon atoms, which contributes to its hydrophobic properties. This colorless to pale yellow liquid has a pungent odor and is highly reactive, particularly with water, where it hydrolyzes to form lauric acid and hydrochloric acid. Lauroyl chloride is soluble in organic solvents such as ether and chloroform but is insoluble in water due to its nonpolar nature. It is commonly used in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of esters, amides, and other derivatives. Additionally, it serves as an important intermediate in the production of surfactants and emulsifiers. Due to its reactivity, proper handling and storage are essential, as it can cause severe irritation to skin and eyes and may pose health hazards if inhaled or ingested. Safety precautions, including the use of personal protective equipment, are recommended when working with this compound.
