Acetyl chloride, (2-chlorophenoxy)-

Description:
Acetyl chloride, (2-chlorophenoxy)-, also known by its CAS number 20143-41-3, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of both an acetyl chloride functional group and a 2-chlorophenoxy moiety. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pungent odor, indicative of its reactivity and volatility. It is soluble in organic solvents but reacts with water, releasing hydrochloric acid and forming the corresponding phenolic compound. The presence of the chlorophenoxy group suggests potential applications in the synthesis of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, as it can serve as an intermediate in chemical reactions. Due to its reactivity, particularly with nucleophiles, acetyl chloride, (2-chlorophenoxy)- must be handled with care, as it can cause irritation to the skin, eyes, and respiratory system. Proper safety precautions, including the use of personal protective equipment and working in a well-ventilated area, are essential when working with this compound.
