2-ethylbutyryl chloride

Description:

2-Ethylbutyryl chloride, with the CAS number 2736-40-5, is an acyl chloride that is derived from 2-ethylbutyric acid. It is characterized by the presence of a carbonyl group (C=O) adjacent to a chlorine atom, which makes it a reactive compound commonly used in organic synthesis. This substance typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pungent odor, indicative of its reactivity and potential for irritation. It is soluble in organic solvents but reacts with water, releasing hydrochloric acid and forming the corresponding acid. Due to its reactivity, 2-ethylbutyryl chloride is often employed in the synthesis of various organic compounds, including esters and amides. Safety precautions are essential when handling this compound, as it can cause severe skin and eye irritation and is considered hazardous. Proper storage in a cool, dry place away from moisture is recommended to maintain its stability and prevent unwanted reactions.

2-Ethylbutyryl chloride is a growth regulator and plant hormone. It is a non-competitive inhibitor of the enzyme glutamate decarboxylase. 2-Ethylbutyryl chloride has been shown to be effective in treating horticultural crops, such as apples, peaches, and pears. This chemical also has pharmacokinetic properties that are unique to its structure. For example, it is eliminated by the liver and kidney quickly and completely, with a half-life of about 1 minute in mice. In addition, this chemical does not affect nitric oxide production or cause hemolysis in mouse models.
