Chloromethyl Chloroformate (CAS 96-48-0, C2H2Cl3O2) is a potent chlorinating reagent used in organic synthesis. It serves as a critical intermediate for introducing the chloromethoxycarbonyl group via reaction with alcohols or phenols under anhydrous conditions.
Strictly store in cool, dry, well-ventilated areas away from moisture. Requires full PPE including respirators due to severe lachrymator properties and high toxicity upon inhalation or skin contact.
