Butanoic acid, 4-chloro-, methyl ester

Description:

Butanoic acid, 4-chloro-, methyl ester, also known as methyl 4-chlorobutanoate, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group derived from butanoic acid and methanol. It features a four-carbon butanoic acid backbone with a chlorine atom substituted at the fourth carbon position. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a fruity odor, indicative of its ester nature. It is soluble in organic solvents and exhibits moderate solubility in water due to the presence of the ester group. The compound is used in various applications, including as an intermediate in organic synthesis and in the production of flavoring agents and fragrances. Its reactivity is influenced by the presence of the chlorine atom, which can participate in nucleophilic substitution reactions. Safety data indicates that it should be handled with care, as it may cause irritation to the skin and eyes. Proper storage and handling procedures are essential to ensure safety when working with this chemical.
