Ethanol, 2-chloro-, 1,1′-carbonate

Description:
Ethanol, 2-chloro-, 1,1′-carbonate, also known as chloroethyl carbonate, is an organic compound characterized by its carbonate functional group and the presence of a chlorine atom on the ethyl chain. It typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive odor. This compound is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic characteristics. The presence of the chlorine atom enhances its reactivity, making it useful in various chemical synthesis processes, particularly in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Ethanol, 2-chloro-, 1,1′-carbonate can undergo nucleophilic substitution reactions, which are essential in organic synthesis. It is important to handle this compound with care, as it may pose health risks, including irritation to the skin and respiratory system. Proper safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment, are recommended when working with this substance. As with all chemicals, understanding its properties and potential hazards is crucial for safe handling and application in laboratory or industrial settings.
