Cyclobutanecarbonyl chloride, 1-methyl-

Description:

Cyclobutanecarbonyl chloride, 1-methyl- is an organic compound characterized by its cyclic structure and the presence of a carbonyl chloride functional group. It features a cyclobutane ring, which consists of four carbon atoms arranged in a square planar configuration, contributing to its unique strain and reactivity. The addition of a carbonyl chloride group (–C(=O)Cl) enhances its reactivity, making it a useful intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the formation of amides and esters. The presence of a methyl group at the 1-position of the cyclobutane ring introduces steric effects that can influence the compound's reactivity and interaction with other molecules. Cyclobutanecarbonyl chloride, 1-methyl- is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pungent odor, and it is sensitive to moisture, which can lead to hydrolysis. As with many carbonyl compounds, it may pose hazards such as toxicity and corrosiveness, necessitating careful handling and storage under controlled conditions.
