Ethyl 2,3-dichloropropanoate

Description:
Ethyl 2,3-dichloropropanoate is an organic compound classified as an ester, characterized by its ethyl group and the presence of two chlorine atoms on the propanoate backbone. It typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a fruity odor. This compound is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic ethyl group. Ethyl 2,3-dichloropropanoate is primarily used in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. It exhibits moderate volatility and can be reactive under certain conditions, particularly in the presence of nucleophiles, due to the electrophilic nature of the carbonyl carbon. Safety considerations include handling it in well-ventilated areas and using appropriate personal protective equipment, as it may pose health risks upon inhalation or skin contact. Its chemical structure allows for various reactions, including hydrolysis and transesterification, making it a versatile intermediate in synthetic organic chemistry.
