3-chloropropyl benzoate

Description:
3-Chloropropyl benzoate is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group, formed from the reaction of benzoic acid and 3-chloropropanol. It typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pleasant, fruity odor. The presence of the chlorine atom in the propyl chain influences its reactivity and solubility properties, making it more polar than its non-chlorinated counterparts. This compound is generally soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic ring. 3-Chloropropyl benzoate is utilized in various applications, including as an intermediate in organic synthesis and in the production of fragrances and flavoring agents. Its chemical stability and reactivity can be affected by environmental conditions, and it should be handled with care due to potential health hazards associated with chlorinated compounds. Proper safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment, are recommended when working with this substance.
