Description:Chlorocyclopentane, with the CAS number 930-28-9, is a cyclic organic compound characterized by a five-membered carbon ring with one chlorine atom substituting a hydrogen atom. This compound is a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature and has a distinctive odor. Chlorocyclopentane is relatively non-polar, which influences its solubility properties, making it more soluble in organic solvents than in water. It has a moderate boiling point and density, typical of chlorinated hydrocarbons. The presence of the chlorine atom introduces reactivity, allowing for various chemical transformations, such as nucleophilic substitution reactions. Chlorocyclopentane is primarily used in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of other chemicals. However, like many chlorinated compounds, it may pose environmental and health risks, necessitating careful handling and disposal. Its physical and chemical properties make it a subject of interest in both industrial applications and research settings.
