CAS 51760-90-8

2,3-dimethylbutanoyl chloride

Description:

2,3-Dimethylbutanoyl chloride, with the CAS number 51760-90-8, is an acyl chloride derived from 2,3-dimethylbutanoic acid. It is characterized by its reactive acyl chloride functional group, which makes it a useful intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the formation of esters and amides. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pungent odor, indicative of its reactivity and potential for hydrolysis in the presence of moisture. It is soluble in organic solvents such as dichloromethane and ether but reacts vigorously with water, releasing hydrochloric acid and forming the corresponding carboxylic acid. Safety precautions are essential when handling this substance, as it can cause severe 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 reactivity. Overall, 2,3-dimethylbutanoyl chloride is a valuable reagent in synthetic organic chemistry, particularly for introducing acyl groups into various organic molecules.
