CAS 49665-74-9: 2-(Chloromethyl)-1-methylpiperidine

Description: 2-(Chloromethyl)-1-methylpiperidine is a chemical compound characterized by its piperidine ring structure, which is a six-membered saturated nitrogen-containing heterocycle. The presence of a chloromethyl group at the second position and a methyl group at the first position distinguishes this compound. It typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on the temperature and purity. This compound is known for its reactivity due to the chloromethyl group, which can participate in nucleophilic substitution reactions, making it useful in organic synthesis and medicinal chemistry. It is soluble in organic solvents and may have moderate to low solubility in water. Safety considerations include handling it with care due to potential toxicity and irritant properties. As with many nitrogen-containing compounds, it may exhibit basicity, allowing it to form salts with acids. Proper storage and handling protocols should be followed to ensure safety and stability.
