Carbonochloridic acid, 4-methylphenyl ester

Description:
Carbonochloridic acid, 4-methylphenyl ester, also known as 4-methylphenyl chloroformate, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group derived from carbonochloridic acid (chloroformic acid) and 4-methylphenol. It typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinct odor. This compound is known for its reactivity, particularly as a reagent in organic synthesis, where it is often used to introduce the 4-methylphenyl group into various substrates. It is soluble in organic solvents such as dichloromethane and ether but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. The compound is sensitive to moisture and can hydrolyze in the presence of water, releasing hydrochloric acid and forming the corresponding 4-methylphenol. Safety precautions are necessary when handling this substance, as it can be corrosive and harmful if inhaled or ingested. Proper storage in a cool, dry place, away from incompatible materials, is essential to maintain its stability and reactivity.
