N-butyl-2-chloroacetamide is an organic compound characterized by its amide functional group, which features a butyl chain and a chloroacetyl moiety. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and temperature. It has a moderate molecular weight and exhibits a relatively low volatility, making it stable under standard conditions. N-butyl-2-chloroacetamide is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone, but its solubility in water is limited due to the hydrophobic nature of the butyl group. The presence of the chloro group introduces reactivity, allowing it to participate in nucleophilic substitution reactions. This compound is often used in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. Safety precautions should be observed when handling this substance, as it may pose health risks through inhalation or skin contact. Proper storage in a cool, dry place away from incompatible materials is recommended to maintain its stability.

N-Butyl-2-chloro-acetamide

N-Butyl-2-chloroacetamide is a coordination compound that binds to metal ions. It has been shown to have binding constants of 1.5 x 10 M for magnesium, and 2.0 x 10 M for zinc. N-Butyl-2-chloroacetamide is also a spiropyran, which is an acetone derivative that has a fluorescence emission spectrum. The kinetic constants for the formation of the transition states are determined by measuring the decoloration rate and the fluorescence emission intensity at various concentrations of the chemical in acetone. The absorption and emission spectra of N-butyl-2-chloroacetamide are determined using photochromic constants, which are constants that describe how quickly a material changes color when exposed to light or heat.
