2-Chlorobutane

Description:

2-Chlorobutane is an organic compound classified as a haloalkane, specifically a chlorinated derivative of butane. Its molecular formula is C4H9Cl, indicating it consists of four carbon atoms, nine hydrogen atoms, and one chlorine atom. This compound is a colorless liquid at room temperature and has a characteristic odor. It is moderately soluble in water but more soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether. 2-Chlorobutane is known for its reactivity, particularly in nucleophilic substitution reactions, where the chlorine atom can be replaced by various nucleophiles. It is used in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of other chemicals. The compound has a boiling point that is higher than that of butane due to the presence of the chlorine atom, which increases molecular weight and intermolecular forces. Safety precautions are necessary when handling 2-chlorobutane, as it can be harmful if inhaled or ingested, and it may cause skin and eye irritation.
