CAS 17714-18-0: (2-Chloroethoxy)cyclopropane

2-Chloro-ethoxy-cyclopropane is a vinyl ether with two chloro substituents on the ethoxy group. It has been used for the synthesis of polymers, pharmaceuticals, and other chemical compounds. 2-Chloro-ethoxy-cyclopropane can be synthesized by reacting anhydrous aluminium chloride with vinyl acetate in the presence of a base catalyst, such as sodium methoxide or sodium ethoxide. The rate of reaction is determined by the concentration of reactants, temperature, and pressure. The rate is also affected by solvents and catalysts. The kinetics of the reaction can be studied using fluorescence parameters to determine how fast a molecule reacts at different concentrations. The reaction can also be studied using micelles, which are spherical structures that form when molecules are dissolved in water. 2-Chloro-ethoxy-cyclopropane has been shown to have interactions with both polar and nonpolar solvents
