4-(Chloromethyl)benzoyl chloride

Description:

4-(Chloromethyl)benzoyl chloride, with the CAS number 876-08-4, is an organic compound that belongs to the class of acyl chlorides. It features a benzoyl group substituted with a chloromethyl group at the para position. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pungent odor, characteristic of acyl chlorides. It is known for its reactivity, particularly due to the presence of the acyl chloride functional group, which can readily undergo nucleophilic substitution reactions. This makes it useful in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of various derivatives and intermediates in pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The chloromethyl group also enhances its reactivity, allowing for further functionalization. However, it is important to handle this compound with care, as it can be corrosive and may cause irritation to the skin, eyes, and respiratory system. Proper safety precautions, including the use of personal protective equipment and working in a well-ventilated area or fume hood, are essential when working with this substance.
