CAS 598-78-7

2-Chloropropionic acid

Description:

2-Chloropropionic acid, with the CAS number 598-78-7, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of both a carboxylic acid functional group and a chlorine atom attached to the second carbon of a three-carbon propionic acid chain. This compound appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pungent odor. It is soluble in water and polar organic solvents, making it versatile in various chemical applications. The presence of the chlorine atom enhances its reactivity, allowing it to participate in nucleophilic substitution reactions and making it useful in the synthesis of other chemical compounds. 2-Chloropropionic acid is primarily utilized in the production of herbicides, pharmaceuticals, and as an intermediate in organic synthesis. It is important to handle this substance with care, as it can be corrosive and may pose health risks upon exposure. Proper safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment, are essential when working with this chemical.
