5-Chlorovaleric acid (CAS: 106-48-9) is a key organic intermediate with molecular formula C5H9ClO2. Produced via chlorination of valeric acid or oxidation of 5-chloropentanal, it serves as a precursor for heterocyclic synthesis.
Store in cool, dry, well-ventilated areas away from oxidizers. Use appropriate PPE to prevent skin contact and inhalation; avoid environmental release due to potential toxicity.
