Ref. 3D-AAA94602

Product Information

• Name: 4-Chlorobutyl Benzoate
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 4-Chlorobutyl benzoate is a synthetic compound that is used in organic synthesis as a catalyst to promote the palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling of halides and epoxides. It is also used for the efficient preparation of peroxides from peracids, which are more stable than those prepared by other methods. 4-Chlorobutyl benzoate can be synthesized from chloroacetic acid and benzoyl chloride, or obtained commercially. 4-Chlorobutyl benzoate has been shown to react with chloride ions to form a crystalline product. The structure of this product has been determined using X-ray crystallography.
