Methyl chloroacetate

Description:

Methyl chloroacetate is an organic compound with the molecular formula C3H5ClO2. It is classified as an ester, specifically an acyl chloride derivative, and is characterized by its colorless liquid form with a fruity odor. This compound is known for its moderate volatility and is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether, but has limited solubility in water. Methyl chloroacetate is primarily used as an intermediate in the synthesis of various pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other organic compounds. It is also utilized in the production of methyl esters and as a reagent in organic synthesis. The compound is considered hazardous; it can cause irritation to the skin, eyes, and respiratory system upon exposure. Proper safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment and adequate ventilation, are essential when handling this substance. Its reactivity is attributed to the presence of both the chloro and ester functional groups, making it a useful building block in chemical synthesis.
