5-Chlorovaleryl Chloride (CAS 1798-60-1, C5H8Cl2O) is a reactive acyl chloride synthesized via chlorination of valeric acid or oxidation of 1,5-dichloropentane. It serves as a key intermediate for pharmaceutical synthesis and polymer modification.
Strictly store in dry, cool environments under inert atmosphere. Requires full PPE due to severe corrosivity and hydrolysis risks releasing HCl gas.
