N-HEPTADECANOYL CHLORIDE - Introduction
heptadecanoyl chloride is an organic compound with the chemical formula C17H33COCl. It is a colorless liquid with a pungent odor.
Nature:
1. the density is relatively high, about 0.9 g/cm;
2. melting point is -10 ℃, boiling point is 180-182 ℃;
3. Soluble in organic solvents, almost insoluble in water;
4. It is a strong acidic substance.
Use:
heptadecanoyl chloride is mainly used for the acylation reaction in organic synthesis. It is an important chemical reagent that can be used to synthesize organic compounds such as drugs, pesticides and spices. In addition, heptadecanoyl chloride can also be used as surfactants and dye blooming agents.
Preparation Method:
A commonly used preparation method is to obtain heptadecanoyl sulfoxide by reacting heptadecanal with thionyl chloride, and then reacting with sodium chloride to form heptadecanoyl chloride.
The preparation equation is as follows:
C17H35CHO SO2Cl2 → C17H35COSO2Cl
C17H35COSO2Cl NaCl → C17H33COCl NaSO4
Safety Information:
1. heptadecanoyl chloride is an irritating substance, and care should be taken to avoid contact with skin and eyes;
2. during use and storage, keep away from fire and heat sources and maintain a well-ventilated environment;
3. Proper laboratory procedures should be followed and appropriate protective equipment such as gloves and goggles should be worn;
4. If inhaled or exposed to heptadecanoyl chloride, disengage immediately and seek medical attention.
