CAS 21615-34-9: 2-Methoxybenzoyl chloride

Description: 2-Methoxybenzoyl chloride, with the CAS number 21615-34-9, is an aromatic acyl chloride characterized by the presence of a methoxy group (-OCH₃) attached to a benzoyl chloride structure. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid and is known for its strong reactivity due to the presence of the acyl chloride functional group, which is highly electrophilic. It is soluble in organic solvents such as dichloromethane and ether but is generally insoluble in water. 2-Methoxybenzoyl chloride is primarily used in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of various esters and amides, and as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Due to its reactive nature, it can cause irritation to the skin, eyes, and respiratory system, necessitating appropriate safety precautions during handling. Additionally, it can undergo hydrolysis in the presence of moisture, leading to the formation of 2-methoxybenzoic acid.
