CAS: 64639-30-1

2-Chloro-2-methylcycloheptan-1-one (2C7) is a cyclization agent used in organic synthesis. It is typically used to produce cyclohexyl and cyclopentyl compounds by radical cyclization of hydroperoxides or allylic hydroperoxides. 2C7 can also be used for the regioselective synthesis of substituted 2,4,6-trichlorocyclohexanes from chlorinated alkenes. The efficiency of this reaction has been shown to depend on structural features of the substituents on the alkyne. Treatment with sulfate ions has been shown to affect the reactivity of 2C7.
