CAS 3282-30-2: Pivaloyl chloride
Description:Pivaloyl chloride, with the CAS number 3282-30-2, is an acyl chloride derived from pivalic acid. It is characterized by its colorless to pale yellow liquid form and has a pungent, irritating odor. This compound is known for its reactivity, particularly in nucleophilic acyl substitution reactions, making it a useful reagent in organic synthesis. Pivaloyl chloride is soluble in organic solvents such as dichloromethane and ether but is not soluble in water due to its hydrophobic nature. It is typically handled with caution, as it can react vigorously with water, alcohols, and amines, releasing hydrochloric acid and potentially causing corrosive damage. The compound is utilized in the synthesis of various chemical intermediates, including pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment, are essential when working with pivaloyl chloride due to its toxic and corrosive properties.
