Hexanoyl chloride Use and Manufacturing

Methods of Manufacturing

Derived from the reaction of ethanol and thionyl chloride. Thionyl chloride was mixed with n-hexanoic acid at 50-70°C, and reacted at 70-90°C for 4h. Distillation, collect 147-160 ℃ fractions, that is, hexanoyl chloride.

Uses

Used as an acylating agent for organic synthesis
