2-(Chloromethyl)furan

Description:
2-(Chloromethyl)furan is an organic compound characterized by its furan ring, which is a five-membered aromatic heterocycle containing one oxygen atom. The presence of a chloromethyl group (-CH2Cl) at the second position of the furan ring significantly influences its reactivity and properties. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive odor. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to the hydrophobic nature of the furan ring. 2-(Chloromethyl)furan is known for its reactivity, particularly in nucleophilic substitution reactions, making it a useful intermediate in organic synthesis, especially in the production of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, it can undergo polymerization and other transformations, which can be exploited in material science. Safety precautions are necessary when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks, including irritation to the skin and respiratory system. Proper storage and handling in a well-ventilated area are recommended to minimize exposure.
