5‑Chloro Valeryl ChlorideProduct Name: 5‑Chloro Valeryl ChlorideSynonyms: 5‑Chloropentanoyl Chloride, 5‑Chlorovaleroyl Chloride, 5‑Chloro‑Valeryl Chloride.
CAS No.: 1575‑61‑7 Molecular Formula: C₅H₈Cl₂O Molecular Weight: 155.02 g/mol Appearance: Clear colourless to slightly yellow corrosive liquid Grade: Pharmaceutical Intermediate / API Chemical Intermediate.
Product Description:5‑Chloro Valeryl Chloride is a high‑purity organic acid chloride intermediate widely used in pharmaceutical and specialty chemical synthesis. It is supplied as a colourless liquid with a characteristic pungent odor and reacts vigorously with water. This compound functions as a bifunctional building block, offering both an acyl chloride group and a terminal chloroalkyl moiety, making it valuable for advanced organic chemistry and intermediate production. It is manufactured to high quality standards with typically ≥98 % purity and is designed for use as an intermediate in the synthesis of APIs, speciality chemicals, agrochemicals and polymer intermediates.
Key Features:High‑purity intermediate: Typically ≥98 % (GC) with low impurity profile. Clear corrosive liquid: Suitable for controlled chemical reactions in synthesis. Bifunctional reactive reagent: Acyl chloride for acylations and chloroalkyl functionality for substitution reactions. Versatile building block: Used in advanced organic and pharmaceutical synthesis. Moisture sensitive: Requires dry storage and handling.
Typical Applications:Pharmaceutical API Intermediate: Key raw material in the synthesis of drugs including anticoagulants (e.g., Apixaban) and other complex molecules. Organic & Fine Chemical Synthesis: Used as an acylating and alkylating reagent in organic transformations. Specialty Chemical Manufacturing: Intermediate for agrochemicals, polymers and specialty derivatives. Lab Reagent for Research: Useful in medicinal chemistry and process development.
Physical & Chemical Properties:Appearance: Clear colourless to slightly yellow liquid Reactivity: Reacts with water, alcohols, amines and bases; hydrolyzes to 5‑chlorovaleric acid Density: ~1.20 g/mL (at 25 °C) Boiling Point: ~38‑39 °C at reduced pressure (typical for acid chlorides) Moisture Sensitivity: Highly sensitive — handle under dry conditions.
Packaging & Storage:Available in airtight sealed bottles/drums with secure closures to prevent moisture ingress. Store in a cool, dry, well‑ventilated area away from moisture, heat and incompatible materials (alcohols, amines, bases). Use appropriate safety equipment due to corrosive nature.
