CAS 3587-60-8
:Benzyl chloromethyl ether
Description:
Benzyl chloromethyl ether, with the CAS number 3587-60-8, is an organic compound characterized by its ether functional group and a chloromethyl substituent. It appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive aromatic odor. This compound is known for its reactivity, particularly due to the presence of the chloromethyl group, which can participate in nucleophilic substitution reactions. It is moderately soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water. Benzyl chloromethyl ether is primarily used as a reagent in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of various benzyl derivatives and as a protective group for alcohols in synthetic chemistry. However, it should be handled with care due to its potential toxicity and irritant properties, necessitating appropriate safety measures during use. Additionally, it is important to note that this compound may pose environmental hazards, and its use should comply with relevant regulations and guidelines.

CAS:Benzyl chloromethyl ether is a nucleophilic reagent that is used in organic synthesis. It reacts with an electrophilic substrate to form a carbon-carbon bond. This reaction can be used as part of an asymmetric synthesis where the chiral center is on the carbon atom adjacent to the chlorine atom. Benzyl chloromethyl ether has been shown to have receptor activity and inhibitory effects on adenosine receptors. In addition, benzyl chloromethyl ether inhibits the growth of resistant mutants of infectious diseases, such as HIV-1, through its ability to inhibit transcription.Formula:C8H9ClOPurity:(%) Min. 85%Color and Shape:Clear LiquidMolecular weight:156.61 g/molBenzyl Chloromethyl Ether (90%)
