CAS 2912-62-1: α-Chlorobenzeneacetyl chloride

Chloro(phenyl)acetyl chloride

±-Chlorophenylacetyl Chloride is a chemical reagent that is used in organic chemistry. It reacts with tetronic acid to form a ruthenium complex, which can be used as a catalyst for organic reactions. It has been shown to react with n-dimethyl formamide and sodium chloride, forming an insoluble precipitate. The rate of reaction depends on the morphology of the reactant and whether it is soluble or not. The reactive properties of ±-chlorophenylacetyl chloride are due to its chlorine atom, which forms a stable bond with a carbon atom on the reactant. This product has been shown to have low expression levels in Chinese herbs and fetal bovine serum when compared to subtilis.
