CAS 38870-89-2

Methoxyacetyl chloride

Description:

Methoxyacetyl chloride, with the CAS number 38870-89-2, is an organic compound characterized by its functional groups, specifically an acetyl chloride moiety and a methoxy group. It appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pungent odor, typical of acyl chlorides. This compound is known for its reactivity, particularly in nucleophilic acyl substitution reactions, where it can act as an acylating agent. Methoxyacetyl chloride is soluble in organic solvents such as dichloromethane and ether but is generally not soluble in water due to the presence of the acyl chloride group, which is highly reactive with water, leading to hydrolysis. It is used in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of esters and amides, and in the pharmaceutical industry for the synthesis of various bioactive compounds. Safety precautions are essential when handling this substance, as it can cause severe irritation to the skin, eyes, and respiratory tract, and it should be used in a well-ventilated area with appropriate protective equipment.
