Hexanoyl chloride

Description:

Hexanoyl chloride, also known as caproyl chloride, is an acyl chloride derived from hexanoic acid. It is characterized by its molecular formula C6H11ClO and a carbon chain length of six carbon atoms. This colorless to pale yellow liquid has a pungent odor typical of acyl chlorides and is highly reactive, particularly with water, alcohols, and amines, leading to the formation of corresponding acids and esters. Hexanoyl chloride is soluble in organic solvents such as ether and chloroform but reacts vigorously with moisture, producing hydrochloric acid and hexanoic acid. It is commonly used in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of hexanoyl derivatives and as an acylating agent in various chemical reactions. Due to its reactivity, it should be handled with care, using appropriate safety measures to avoid exposure, as it can cause severe irritation to the skin, eyes, and respiratory tract. Proper storage in a cool, dry place away from moisture is essential to maintain its stability.

Hexanoyl chloride

CAS: 142-61-0

Hexanoyl chloride is an antimicrobial agent that inhibits the growth of bacteria by altering their membrane lipids. Hexanoyl chloride alters the lipid composition of bacterial membranes and causes them to form pores, which leads to cell death. Hexanoyl chloride has been shown to be effective against Gram-positive bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pneumoniae, as well as Gram-negative bacteria such as Escherichia coli. Hexanoyl chloride also has a low toxicity in humans, with no observed adverse effects in human serum or natural compounds.
