2,4,6-Trimethylbenzeneacetyl chloride

Description:
2,4,6-Trimethylbenzeneacetyl chloride, with the CAS number 52629-46-6, is an organic compound that belongs to the class of acyl chlorides. It is characterized by the presence of a benzene ring substituted with three methyl groups at the 2, 4, and 6 positions, along with an acetyl chloride functional group. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pungent odor, indicative of the acyl chloride functional group, which is known for its reactivity, particularly with water and alcohols. It is soluble in organic solvents such as dichloromethane and ether but reacts vigorously with moisture, releasing hydrochloric acid. Due to its structure, 2,4,6-trimethylbenzeneacetyl chloride can participate in various chemical reactions, including acylation and Friedel-Crafts reactions, making it useful in organic synthesis. However, it should be handled with care due to its corrosive nature and potential health hazards associated with exposure. Proper safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment, are essential when working with this compound.
