3-Methylphenyl carbonochloridate

Description:
3-Methylphenyl carbonochloridate, also known as 3-methylphenyl chloroformate, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a chloroformate functional group attached to a 3-methylphenyl moiety. It typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinct odor. This compound is known for its reactivity, particularly as an acylating agent in organic synthesis, where it can be used to introduce the carbonochloridate group into various substrates. It is soluble in organic solvents such as dichloromethane and ether but is generally insoluble in water. Due to the presence of the chloroformate group, it can be sensitive to moisture and should be handled with care, as it can release toxic gases upon hydrolysis. Safety precautions are essential when working with this compound, as it can be irritating to the skin, eyes, and respiratory system. Overall, 3-methylphenyl carbonochloridate is a valuable reagent in synthetic organic chemistry, particularly in the preparation of esters and amides.
