CAS 4122-68-3

(4-Chlorophenoxy)acetyl chloride

Description:

(4-Chlorophenoxy)acetyl chloride, with the CAS number 4122-68-3, is an organic compound characterized by its functional groups, which include an acyl chloride and a phenoxy group. It typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pungent odor. This compound is known for its reactivity, particularly due to the presence of the acyl chloride functional group, which makes it a useful intermediate in organic synthesis, especially in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. It can undergo nucleophilic acyl substitution reactions, allowing it to react with various nucleophiles, including amines and alcohols, to form corresponding amides and esters. Additionally, (4-Chlorophenoxy)acetyl chloride is sensitive to moisture and should be handled with care, as it can hydrolyze to produce hydrochloric acid and the corresponding phenolic compound. Proper safety precautions, including the use of personal protective equipment, are essential when working with this substance due to its corrosive nature and potential health hazards.
