3-Methylbenzyl chloride

Description:

3-Methylbenzyl chloride, also known as meta-tolyl chloride, is an organic compound characterized by a benzene ring substituted with a methyl group and a chlorine atom. Its molecular formula is C8H9Cl, and it features a chloromethyl group attached to the meta position of the methyl group on the aromatic ring. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive aromatic odor. It is moderately soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water. 3-Methylbenzyl chloride is primarily used as an intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other fine chemicals. It is important to handle this compound with care, as it can be irritating to the skin, eyes, and respiratory system. Proper safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment and adequate ventilation, are essential when working with this substance. Additionally, it should be stored in a cool, dry place away from incompatible materials.
