CAS 75-00-3: Chloroethane
Description:Chloroethane, also known as ethyl chloride, is a colorless, flammable gas at room temperature with a sweet odor. Its chemical formula is C2H5Cl, and it belongs to the class of alkyl halides. Chloroethane is primarily used as a solvent and as a refrigerant in various industrial applications. It has a relatively low boiling point, making it useful in applications requiring rapid evaporation. The substance is moderately soluble in water but highly soluble in organic solvents. Chloroethane can act as an anesthetic in medical settings, although its use has declined due to safety concerns. It is important to handle chloroethane with care, as it can be harmful if inhaled or ingested, and it poses environmental risks due to its potential to contribute to ozone depletion. Proper storage and disposal methods are essential to mitigate its impact on health and the environment.
