CAS 112-77-6: oleoyl chloride
Description:Oleoyl chloride, with the CAS number 112-77-6, is an acyl chloride derived from oleic acid. It is characterized by its long carbon chain, consisting of 18 carbon atoms with a cis double bond at the ninth position, which contributes to its unsaturated nature. Oleoyl chloride is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pungent odor, typical of acyl chlorides. It is highly reactive, particularly with water, leading to the formation of oleic acid and hydrochloric acid upon hydrolysis. This reactivity makes it useful in organic synthesis, particularly in the formation of amides and esters. Oleoyl chloride is soluble in organic solvents such as chloroform and ether but is insoluble in water due to its hydrophobic nature. Safety precautions are necessary when handling this compound, as it can cause severe irritation to the skin, eyes, and respiratory tract. Overall, oleoyl chloride is an important intermediate in the synthesis of various chemical compounds, particularly in the fields of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals.
