CAS 591-97-9

Crotyl chloride

Description:

Crotyl chloride, with the CAS number 591-97-9, is an organic compound characterized by its structure as an allylic chloride. It features a four-carbon chain with a chlorine atom attached to the second carbon, making it a derivative of crotyl alcohol. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pungent odor, indicative of its reactivity. Crotyl chloride is known for its ability to undergo various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitutions and eliminations, making it useful in organic synthesis. It is often employed as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other organic compounds. Due to the presence of the chlorine atom, crotyl chloride is considered a reactive species and should be handled with care, as it can be corrosive and may pose health hazards upon exposure. Proper safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment and adequate ventilation, are essential when working with this substance.

Crotyl chloride - mixture of cis- and trans-isomers

CAS: 591-97-9

Crotyl chloride is a predominantly trans-cyclohexane ring with an oxidation catalyst. It is used in the synthesis of cycloalkanoic and alkanoic acids, fatty acids and esters. The reaction mechanism for crotyl chloride involves halides, sodium salts and copper chloride. The Friedel-Crafts reaction can be used for the synthesis of crotyl chloride, which entails the addition of an alkene to an alkyne. This reaction also requires hydrochloric acid and chlorine gas.
