4-Chlorobenzoyl chloride (CAS 122-06-7) is a vital acylating agent produced via chlorination of p-chlorotoluene or oxidation followed by chlorination. Its molecular formula is C7H4Cl2O. This compound serves as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals.
Strictly store in sealed containers under dry, inert atmosphere. Requires full PPE due to corrosive nature and moisture sensitivity; hydrolysis releases HCl gas.
