CAS 15032-43-6: Ethyl 4-chloro-α-cyanobenzeneacetate

Description: Ethyl 4-chloro-α-cyanobenzeneacetate, with the CAS number 15032-43-6, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group and the presence of both a chloro and a cyano substituent on the aromatic ring. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and specific conditions. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic structure. Ethyl 4-chloro-α-cyanobenzeneacetate is often utilized in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. Its reactivity is influenced by the electron-withdrawing effects of the chloro and cyano groups, which can enhance electrophilic substitution reactions. As with many organic compounds, safety precautions should be taken when handling this substance, as it may pose health risks if ingested, inhaled, or absorbed through the skin. Proper storage and disposal methods are essential to minimize environmental impact.
