Description
4-Propylcyclohexane-1-carbonyl chloride (CAS No. 67589-88-2) is a high-purity organic compound with the molecular formula C10H17ClO. This trans-configuration cyclohexane derivative features a propyl substituent at the 4-position and a reactive carbonyl chloride group, making it a valuable intermediate in synthetic organic chemistry. The compound is supplied as a clear to slightly yellow liquid with a characteristic acyl chloride odor, and it is highly reactive toward nucleophiles such as alcohols, amines, and water. Suitable for use in peptide coupling reactions, Friedel-Crafts acylation, and other acylations, this reagent is rigorously quality-controlled to ensure consistency in research and industrial applications. Store under inert gas (e.g., nitrogen or argon) at 2-8°C to prevent hydrolysis.
