:1,4-Dichloropentane
Description:
1,4-Dichloropentane is an organic compound characterized by its linear chain structure, consisting of five carbon atoms with two chlorine substituents located at the first and fourth positions of the carbon chain. Its molecular formula is C5H10Cl2, indicating the presence of two chlorine atoms replacing hydrogen atoms in the pentane backbone. This compound is a colorless liquid at room temperature and is known for its moderate volatility and relatively low solubility in water, making it more soluble in organic solvents. 1,4-Dichloropentane is primarily used as an intermediate in organic synthesis and can serve as a solvent in various chemical reactions. It exhibits properties typical of chlorinated hydrocarbons, including potential toxicity and environmental concerns, necessitating careful handling and disposal. Additionally, it may undergo reactions such as nucleophilic substitution and elimination, which are common for alkyl halides. As with many chlorinated compounds, it is important to consider its safety data, including potential health effects and regulatory guidelines for use and exposure.
