CAS 34743-87-8: 2-Phenoxyethyl chloroformate

Description:2-Phenoxyethyl chloroformate is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group, specifically a chloroformate. It features a phenoxyethyl moiety, which consists of a phenyl ring bonded to an ethylene glycol unit, making it a versatile reagent in organic synthesis. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinct odor. It is known for its reactivity, particularly in acylation reactions, where it can introduce the chloroformate group into various substrates. 2-Phenoxyethyl chloroformate 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. This compound is often utilized in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, making it an important intermediate in chemical manufacturing. Proper safety precautions should be observed when working with this substance, including the use of personal protective equipment and working in a well-ventilated area.
