1-(Chloromethoxy)-2-methoxyethane

Description:

1-(Chloromethoxy)-2-methoxyethane, with the CAS number 3970-21-6, is an organic compound characterized by its ether functional groups and the presence of a chlorine atom. It features a chloromethoxy group attached to a methoxyethane backbone, which contributes to its reactivity and potential applications in organic synthesis. The compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive odor. It is soluble in organic solvents, such as ethanol and diethyl ether, but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic ether groups. The presence of the chlorine atom makes it a useful intermediate in various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitutions and coupling reactions. Additionally, its structure allows for potential applications in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Safety precautions should be observed when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks through inhalation or skin contact. Proper storage in a cool, dry place away from incompatible substances is recommended to maintain its stability.

2-Methoxyethoxymethyl chloride

CAS: 3970-21-6

2-Methoxyethoxymethyl chloride (MEEMCl) is an organochloride that is used in the synthesis of quinoline derivatives. It can be used to synthesize a number of biologically active compounds, such as 2-methoxyethoxymethyl quinoline (2MEQ). MEEMCl has been shown to inhibit chronic bronchitis and inflammatory diseases by inhibiting the enzyme amido amidohydrolase. It is also used in the synthesis of monoclonal antibodies for cancer research. MEEMCl can be activated by hydrochloric acid and then reacts with an amine to form an amido derivative. The amido derivative can then be reacted with a carboxylic acid under acidic conditions to produce an ester. This ester can then be hydrolyzed by hydrochloric acid or potassium hydroxide to give the desired compound. The analytical methods for 2-methoxyethoxymethyl chloride include gas
