Product Overview

Product Name: Acetyl Chloride (Chloracetyl)

CAS No.: 75-36-5

Molecular Formula: C₂H₃ClO (CH₃COCl)

Molecular Weight: 78.50

EINECS No.: 200-865-6

Synonyms: Chloracetyl, Chloroacetyl, Acetic Chloride, Ethanoyl Chloride

Acetyl Chloride (CAS 75-36-5) is a colorless to light yellow clear fuming liquid with a pungent, irritating odor . It is a highly reactive acyl chloride derived from acetic acid, with a molecular weight of 78.50. The compound is flammable, moisture-sensitive, and decomposes violently upon contact with water or alcohol .

With a purity of ≥99.0%, Acetyl Chloride serves as one of the most important acylating reagents in organic synthesis. Its strong electrophilic acetylating capability makes it a versatile building block for introducing acetyl groups into various organic molecules

Key Applications:

1. Pharmaceutical Synthesis (Primary Application)

Acetyl Chloride is a key raw material for the synthesis of various pharmaceutical compounds, including:

• 2,4-Dichloro-5-fluoroacetophenone (an intermediate for Ciprofloxacin)

• Ibuprofen

• Other antibiotic and anti-inflammatory drug intermediates 

2. Organic Synthesis & Acetylation

Acts as a powerful acetylating reagent for introducing acetyl groups into alcohols, amines, and aromatic compounds. Its acylating capability is stronger than acetic anhydride, making it preferred for many acetylation reactions .

3. Agrochemical Industry

Used in the production of pesticides, herbicides, and other agrochemical intermediates .

4. Dye Industry

Serves as a starting material for the synthesis of various dyes and pigments .

5. Industrial Applications

• Catalyst for chlorination reactions of carboxylic acids

• Production of novel electroplating complexing agents

• Fine chemical synthesis and specialty organic intermediates 

6. Analytical Chemistry

• Reagent for the determination of cholesterol and water content in organic liquids

• Hydroxy and amino group quantitative analysis
