Lauroyl chloride CAS 112-16-3 LC

Dodecanoyl chloride, with the chemical formula C₁₂H₂₃ClO, is a colorless or light yellow transparent oily liquid with a strong pungent odor. It is liquid at room temperature. ‌

Physical properties ‌Melting point‌: about -17℃ ‌Boiling point‌: 145℃ (2.4kPa) ‌Density‌: 0.946g/cm³ ‌Solubility‌: miscible in organic solvents such as ether and benzene, and decomposes when in contact with water or alcohol. ‌

Chemical properties ‌As an acyl chloride compound, it has the characteristics of reacting with nucleophilic reagents such as water and alcohol to form carboxylic acids or esters. It is easy to cause hydrolysis or decomposition reaction when exposed to high temperature or oxidants and acids. It needs to be stored away from fire, oxidants and acids. ‌

Main uses ‌Pharmaceutical intermediates‌: used to synthesize compounds such as dodecanoyl peroxide and sodium lauroyl polypeptide. ‌
‌Organic synthesis‌: as an acylating agent, it is widely used in pesticides, surfactants and other fields
