CAS 51512-09-5

(2-chlorophenyl)acetyl chloride

Description:

(2-Chlorophenyl)acetyl chloride, with the CAS number 51512-09-5, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of both an acetyl chloride functional group and a chlorophenyl moiety. It typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pungent odor, indicative of its reactivity and volatility. This compound is known for its role as an acylating agent in organic synthesis, particularly in the formation of amides and esters. Its reactivity is primarily due to the presence of the acyl chloride functional group, which readily reacts with nucleophiles. The chlorophenyl group contributes to the compound's overall hydrophobic character and can influence its reactivity and solubility in various solvents. Safety precautions are essential when handling this substance, as it can be corrosive and may cause irritation to the skin, eyes, and respiratory system. Proper storage in a cool, dry place away from moisture is recommended to maintain its stability and prevent hydrolysis.
