4-Methoxycarbonylphenyl chloroformate

Description:
4-Methoxycarbonylphenyl chloroformate, with the CAS number 31140-40-6, is an organic compound that belongs to the class of chloroformates, which are esters of chloroformic acid. This compound features a methoxycarbonyl group (–COOCH3) attached to a phenyl ring, making it a derivative of phenyl chloroformate. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic odor. The presence of the chloroformate functional group indicates that it is reactive, particularly with nucleophiles, making it useful in organic synthesis, especially in the formation of carbamates and esters. Its reactivity is attributed to the electrophilic carbonyl carbon, which can undergo nucleophilic attack. Additionally, this compound is sensitive to moisture and should be handled with care, as it can hydrolyze in the presence of water. Safety precautions are necessary when working with this substance due to its potential irritant properties and the release of toxic gases upon decomposition.
