2,4-Dimethylbenzoyl chloride

Description:
2,4-Dimethylbenzoyl chloride, with the CAS number 21900-42-5, is an organic compound that belongs to the class of acyl chlorides. It features a benzoyl group substituted with two methyl groups at the 2 and 4 positions on the aromatic ring. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pungent odor, characteristic of acyl chlorides. It is known for its reactivity, particularly in nucleophilic substitution reactions, where it can react with alcohols, amines, and other nucleophiles to form corresponding esters, amides, or other derivatives. 2,4-Dimethylbenzoyl chloride is often used as an intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other fine chemicals. It is important to handle this compound with care due to its corrosive nature and potential to release hydrochloric acid upon reaction with water. Proper safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment and working in a well-ventilated area, are essential when working with this substance.
