:2-(Chloromethyl)benzoyl chloride
Description:
2-(Chloromethyl)benzoyl chloride, with the CAS number 42908-86-1, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of both a benzoyl chloride and a chloromethyl group. It typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid and is known for its reactivity due to the presence of the acyl chloride functional group, which makes it a potent electrophile. This compound is used in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its chloromethyl group can participate in nucleophilic substitution reactions, allowing for further functionalization. The compound is sensitive to moisture and should be handled with care, as it can release hydrochloric acid upon hydrolysis. Safety precautions are essential when working with this substance, as it can be corrosive and irritating to the skin, eyes, and respiratory system. Proper storage in a cool, dry place, away from moisture and incompatible materials, is crucial to maintain its stability and reactivity.
