4-Ethylbenzoyl chloride

Description:

4-Ethylbenzoyl chloride, with the CAS number 16331-45-6, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure, featuring a benzoyl group substituted with an ethyl group at the para position. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid and is known for its strong reactivity due to the presence of the acyl chloride functional group. It is soluble in organic solvents such as dichloromethane and ether but is generally insoluble in water. 4-Ethylbenzoyl chloride is primarily used in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of various chemical intermediates and in the manufacture of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. It can undergo reactions typical of acyl chlorides, including nucleophilic acyl substitution, making it a valuable reagent in synthetic chemistry. However, it is important to handle this compound with care, as it can be corrosive and may cause irritation to the skin, eyes, and respiratory system. Proper safety precautions should be taken when working with this substance.
